Vacation!

Baby K and I recently went to my Grandmother's house for a week long vacation.  She lives in a small town on the lake. It's beautiful there.  Kaelyn loved running around outside and getting absolutely spoiled by my Grandmother (Mother) and her husband.   

We had so much fun just hanging out, cooking dinner together, shopping, exploring and just being outside.

My grandmother actually raised me and I call her and consider her my Mom.  My real mother died in a car accident when I was two.  I have so much more to say on THAT subject, but I am not in the right frame of mind to go there today!  So when I refer to seeing or talking to my Mom, I am talking about my grandmother.

I will say that I spent my most of teenagers year making sure SHE knew that she was just my grandmother and now most of my adult years making sure SHE knows that she is my MOM.  I still wish EVERY.SINGLE.DAY that my Mom was still alive and here to be my friend and to love on Kaelyn.  But at the same time I know how incredibly luckly I am to have the Mom I do.  She did not have to raise me, but chose to.  That means so much to me.  She is my best friend and I honestly do not know where I would be without here.  She has made me into the woman I am today.
