HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY SARAH!!!



Well, I can't believe my little girl is 30 today!! Sarah and her darling family came over for dinner with Amy and Clark and their darling little girls. We had BBQ ribs, corn on the cob, baked beans, salad, cantaloupe, pineapple and Amy made her a birthday cake and I made homemade chocolate ice cream. It was tasty! Sarah got a new camera and was taking pictures like crazy and she will blog them on her site. I only got one on my camera. Anyway, I can remember the day Sarah was born, like it was yesterday, it was wasn't it???? Wow how time flies by. It is so hard to believe that my little girl has 4 children of her own, and one in 1st grade! Geez, I remember sending Jeff to 1st grade, wasn't that just the other day??? My how the time slips by, I just want to tell all you young mommies out there, (like you are all reading this) cherish all the moments you have, each day, even the "won't this day ever end days", You will miss it one day! You will look back and say, where is my little boy? Where is my little girl?? They grow up so incredibly fast! Once they grow up though, they then become your best friends!!! I love each and every one of my kids and I consider them my bestest friends ever!!! I am so proud of the fabulous people they are and that they all have the gospel in their lives and are teaching it every day to their little families. Happy birthday Sarah, my little princess! I love you!!! Mom

OK... that was so sweet. It's weird to hear that because most of the time we're on the phone complaining about this and that and really "wishing the day would END!". I totally imagine that my kids and I will also be the BESTEST of friends! You have a wonderful daughter, she's such and sweet and wonderful friend! I'll try to remember not to take for granted this time in their lives!

OK, Kim. I can't read your posts if they are going to make me cry!! I started thinking about my little princess Sarah and how she is 13 and someday will grow up and be 30. Your little girl is now almost as old as me! :0)not really!
