Mother's Day Jackpot

So last night we had the annual Aeroview Mother's Day Dinner put on by the Priesthood. They really do do such an amazing job & it was such a fun night out - especially considering it was my 1st night out without Spence since he arrived on the scene 8 months ago :) :) :) (Looking forward to more of those now that he's a bit older!)

Anyways, when I got home from the dinner & my mother in law was leaving she said she'd left me a little something beside my bed, so when I went into my room a little later on, I saw that she'd spoilt me with a lotto ticket for the Mother's Day draw :)

Mac's mother's day treats for Bubu (pronounced Boombu - Nana in fijian)
Now I don't usually buy my own lotto tickets so I don't really ever have to spend time dreaming about what I'd do if I won, but when I woke up this morning I glanced at it on my bedside table & thought I wonder if I won the Mother's Day jackpot, to which straight away a voice in my head replied "you sure did!"

When Heavenly Father assigned out Mums... or when I bid on my Mum or fought for her to be mine & WON - however it happened - I well & truly hit the jackpot xxx 

My Mum is everything I could've hoped for & more. She is kind & loving & selfless & patient & beautiful & funny & talented & uncoordinated lol....& she knows it too, but she dances anyway cause she doesn't care what other people think & I love that about her. I love it when she laughs so hard & tries to talk about what she's laughing about at the same time, but she's laughing so hard she can hardly breathe, let alone string a sentence together :) I love that she is so faithful & committed to her beliefs & so genuine & caring of others. 

The list goes on & on, but I'm eternally grateful for my beautiful Mommy. She is without a doubt the sweetest Spirit I know & though I don't often dream about what I'd do if I won the lotto, I often ponder on what an overwhelmingly joyous occasion it will be to be reunited with my precious Mum again. Happy Mother's Day Momma. I love you no number xxxx

I also hit the jackpot to be blessed to be the Mum of my two little Monkeys :) Being a Mum is by far the hardest AND most rewarding position I've ever held, but if it really came down to it, I wouldn't trade them in for a thing :) :) :) (I had to say if it REALLY came down to it, cause some days I sorta feel like I could & like I want to lol) Lucky they're so cute I always say....P.S I thought the song Superhuman was SUPER appropriate for Mother's Day cause I definitely think that's what Mum's are for being able to cope with childbirth & everything that follows after!!!
