HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!

Just Enjoyin' the ride!!!
One of the best qualities of Cassie is her ability to simply enjoy the ride. She is the first to get on any train any rollercoaster or any ride with her children but perhaps the greatets ride of her life has been Motherhood...and she loves every minute. If motherhood is life's greatest calling then Cassie is accomplishing life's greatest success for she is a tremendous mother.
Thanks to Cassie...we don't blink.
Many of you are perhaps familiar with the country song that says something like "don't blink" (I don't listen to Country much either). Because of Cassie we don't blink. Cassie is committed to enjoying every element of our children's childhood. Cassie puts high priority on family time and enjoying life. She has amazing perspective. I have never believed that anyone can be a perfect mother, but Cassie makes me question that thought constantly! She is an AMAZING MOTHER!
Cassie's Theme
Prominently displayed in our home is a quote by Presindent Hinckley. I can't help but think that this is Cassie's theme to Motherhood and life.
"In all of living, have much of fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed not just endured." -President Hinckley
Motherhood is to be enjoyed not just endured...Thank you Cassie for teaching us the importance of enjoying life! Thank you for being the greatest Mother our children could ever hope for. Thank you!!!
