Mother's Day 2010

Yes, as you all know, I have four children. But little Quincy is not super cooperative in the picture taking department, so she wasn't included. I feel incredibly blessed to be a mother to these little hooligans and to have a mother who puts up with my own hooliganism. Mother's Day is a funny thing. Inevitably, we feel sentimental and affectionate, but we may also feel a little guilty. The efforts just to take this picture in which we all look so happy and adorable took pains I dare not mention! But in the end, after the ups and the downs, the pushing and the pulling, the back and forth . . . I love being a mom. I wouldn't trade it for the world.
