I don't want to face it yet that the girls will be leaving us. But we cannot wait to see all of the wonderful things they do in their next chapter in life. We are so proud of you, Kaylee and Abby. We love you so much.

Piper's Preschool Graduation
Our Pierson kids have been going to Ms Richelle for 7 years now. She has been wonderful to our kids, and they all loved her. I cannot believe we are done with that chapter in our lives. How can that be?! Thank you so much, Richelle. For all that you've done for our family over the years. You have mad a huge impact on our Pierson 3, just like all of your other students :) We will miss you!
Kaylee and Abby's Last Day of School
It has been tradition for the last 5 years that Kaylee and Abby (our babysitters) would come have breakfast with me on Friday mornings before school. Last week was their last week of high school. I can't believe they are graduated. Looking at our first "last day of school picture" together compared to now. That went by way too fast! Love you girls so much!
Piper & Mommy: Selfie Mother's Day Edition
One thing that proves that Piper is my min--she loves to take selfies! She melts my heart whenever she tells me she wants to take pictures together. I hope this isn't just a phase and that she will always want to be my selfie side-kick :)
Mother's Day Hole
There was a larger hole than normal this year on Mother's Day. I have been working so hard to get over losing my mom. To moving forward. To not dwelling in what I'm missing out on. To keeping my focus on my family and what I do have. I had emotionally been preparing myself for mother's day this year. I felt strong. I didn't even think I would cry or be sad. But I was wrong on both counts. I missed her more. The last year has been so hard, and I just could use her more now than ever. On certain days I live in regret. Some days I live in denial. But for the most part, I have myself in a place of acceptance. I still don't understand why she isn't here. I know that I never will either. It was hard to see all of the social media posts online of people posting about their moms and how wonderful they are and all of the fun things they did. We should have went to the spa for massages. We should have sat out by her pool. We should have had Sunday dinner together. We should have been together. I didn't even feel her presence at all. Which probably made the day even harder. Maybe a butterfly or a sign will come my way soon. I hold on to every sign possible. And hope that they never stop.
Happy Mother's Day, Mom. I miss you. And I love you. More importantly, I promise I haven't forgotten about you and never will.
