Happy Mother's Day!



Linsey's been at this for less than 9 months so far -- but you'd never guess it. She's a spectacular and absolutely natural mother. We love you very much.


While Linsey is great and all, there are some other mothers I'd like to say hello to today as well:

Mary Tait: thank you for your constant love, selflessness and devotion. You're one-of-a-kind and I'm glad your mine...


The Wueppers-in-Law: You did a fine job raising Jeffrey and Linsey (not to mention the rest of the brood) and have now (although hesitantly) taken in a son-in-law and will welcome a new member of the family in July. Thank you for your love and kindness.


Cassandra: when Maisy finally enters school, you should apply for jobs in emergency management. Four kids is a lot of work, especially when living in a foreign country. (Although, having a live-in servant is probably making it a little bit easy.) But anyway: I've always admired the way you raise your children -- for the most part, you do it with a smile while maintaining a vibrant personality. Love you.

There are others, too: Kara and Kim Tait, for instance. We love you as well.

It is hard to imagine how we'd handle these kids if you weren't there to help raise them.

It would probably be something like this...

Thank you Stephen! That was a lovely post and much appreciated. You have many wonderful "moms" out there to admire.

Anyway, I love your post...and you. :)

Thanks stephen that was a very touching post. I really appreciate it.

I think Adam thinks I am a lot cooler now that he had all four kids by himself for 5 days.

You and linsey were really missed this past weekend. It just wan not quite right with out you there.

Those are kind words Stephen. You do have a pretty spectacular wife, and what I have seen so far, I think she's an A+ mother.
Happy 1st Mother's Day to you Linsey! Love you. ~Kara
