Mom! I love you so much,you are my true example of who I want to be. You are so strong and have been through so much and you have come through it all with such grace.You are always so willing to be a listening ear and give the best advice.I feel lifted up after talking to you and feel that I am the better for hearing your words.You are my strength,my shoulder to cry on,my best friend,my example,my everything. All that I learn about motherhood is from you and I hope that I am the mother to my kids that you are to me.
Moving away has been so hard, but through it all, we have talked many hours and have drawn so close in other ways than by being near each other. I love you, I love forever . I love you for always,as long as I'm living, my mommy you'll be.LOve you infinity

I'm Baaaaaack!
After a couple weeks of a virus, eating our computer. We are finally in working order. Apparently technology in the collins household is not on our side. Still,we have no camera. But, Mike took this sweet picture of the kids,when we went to the temple in Fresno.They are double trouble.They feed off eachother and egg eachother on. They are starting to really love playing with one another,Rocco is wanting to include her and they hug eachother out of the blue.I love it and can't wait for their relationship in the future.
