TASHA! WOW WE ARE BLESSED BY YOU!

WITH NINE KIDS ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL...AND SHE LOOKS LIKE THIS...WOW!

THIS WAS TAKEN ON LYDIA'S BIRTHDAY WHEN THEY WENT FOR A SPECIAL TREAT.  SHE MAKES SURE EACH ONE KNOWS HOW SPECIAL THEY ARE TO HER

SHE ALSO MAKES SURE SHE AND HER CHILDREN LET JUSTIN KNOW HOW MUCH HE IS LOVED.  WHAT A BLESSING.

SHE MULTITASKS AND A VERY HIGH LEVEL AS YOU CAN SEE.

THERE FOR THAT HUG AFTER TANNER BIG RACE.

BRYANT IS A MAMA'S BOY FOR SURE.  I HATE TO WISH THE YEARS AWAY BUT I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL HE WILL COME TO ME.  HE JUST SPENDS ALL OF HIS TIME WITH TASHA AND HE LOVES HER BEST!

NEAR THE SACRED GROVE WITH JUSTIN.  THIS WAS A DREAM COME TRUE.

BECAUSE SHE HAVE MOVED AND MOVED AND MOVED....SHE HAS TOUCHED HUNDREDS OF LIVES.

NOW THAT A LINE OF BEAUTIFUL GIRLS THAT LOVE EACH OTHER. SHE LOOKS LIKE ONE OF THE KIDS AFTER HAVING 9 CHILDREN.

MEMORIES OF MN...ROCHESTER.  WE HAVE THE BEST OF MEMORIES WITH THEM THERE.

TASHA LOVES JUSTIN'S DRESS UP DINNER'S AND SHE ALWAYS LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!

I TOOK THIS PICTURE WHEN LYDIA WAS BORN AND I THINK I WAS MORE OVERWHELMED THAN TASHA.  

WE MISS THE TIMES WHEN CHRISTMAS WAS HERE BUT LOOK FORWARD TO THE AFTER CHRISTMAS VISITS AND FACETIMES.

IT SEEMS LIKE THIS WAS YESTERDAY....BUT IT WAS A FEW YEARS AGO.  TASHA HAS ALWAYS BEEN GOOD TO COME TO OUR HOME AND HELP.  I HAVE REALLY APPRECIATED THAT.  SOMETIMES I THINK OF HER AS MY THERAPIST BECAUSE SHE IS SO GOOD TO LISTEN TO ME AND TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO ME.  I APPRECIATE THAT MORE THAN SHE WILL EVER KNOW.  I KNOW SHE WILL NEVER REPEAT ANYTHING I TELL HER......NOT THAT WE HAVE SECRETS....BUT I HAVE A LOT OF ANXIETY AND I DON'T TALK TO JUST ANYONE ABOUT IT.  SHE HAS BEEN A LISTENING EAR THAT HAS HELPED ME UNDERSTAND SOME OF MY PROBLEMS.  HOW DO YOU THANK A FRIEND THAT HAS NINE CHILDREN.....AND TAKES THE TIME TO HELP ME??
I HAVE LEARNED TO APPRECIATE HER MORE AND MORE AS THE YEARS GO ALONG, AND I AM SO THANKFUL FOR HER KINDNESS TO ME.  I TRULY LOVE HER.
I LOVE HOW GOOD SHE IS TO JUSTIN......AND HOW LOYAL.  HE ALSO CAN TRUST HER WITH ANYTHING.  HE KNOWS SHE IS GOING TO BE WITH HIM NO MATTER WHAT.  HE IS VERY BLESSED AS ARE THEIR CHILDREN.
I HOPE SHE KNOWS HOW MUCH WE ALL LOVE HER AND HOW THANKFUL WE ARE FOR HER.  WE KNOW YOU NEVER GET TO CELEBRATE ON YOUR BIRTHDAY, BUT I AM SO GLAD YOU AT LEAST GOT TO SPEND SOME TIME ON A PREVIOUS DAY DOING WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO..WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
