This picture was taken the day I became a mother for the first time.
Just before Jackson was born, my mom wrote me this poem that I will always love. "I'll never forget that date It was back in November, 1978 I was just 25, the same age as you I was happy and excited, but a little scared too I woke up early that Saturday morning I was having a baby, you gave little warning We drove to the hospital, you weren't going to wait And when they examined me, they screamed "She's dilated to eight!" I'm not gonna lie, the pains were getting stronger They called for the doctor, you wouldn't wait any longer And then straight from God up in heaven above He sent me another little angel to love The feelings I had I could never replace The first time ever I saw your face You were so beautiful, so precious, so sweet From the top of your head to your tiny little feet Now you're all grown up and it's your turn All those amazing feelings you're about to learn I love you so much, and I know God does too Cause now he's preparing to send an angel to you." 11 years later, and it still makes me cry. There is nothing in this world like a mother's love.

AuthorMy name is Kaci. I am a working mom of 3. Wife to Josh. Mom to Jackson, Cameron & Isabella. My life is dinner, homework, baseball, basketball, grocery lists, laundry, middle school, wine, video games, and schedules. I started this blog because I love taking pictures, and I needed a place to document our life. I wanted a place to write it all down, to remember little details so easily forgotten in the mad rush that is the life of a family of 5. Through my photos and words, I endeavor to capture our story.
