I love being a mom! However I love being with my family because they always give me a chance to be a kid again and I love it. This week in Boise has been incredible and so sad at the same time.
I love the late nights, playing zombies out in the fields (most fun game ever), the long talks, the laughing, the joking, watching movies outside on a screen, my mom rubbing my back in church, my nieces playing with my hair, shopping for makeup at a MALL (yes I even got to go to a mall while I was here and buy makeup for the 1st time in I don't know how long), feeling completely free to be myself. That feeling you get when you go home to visit happens whenever, wherever my family gets together. My nieces are grown up, they are kind, smart, funny, and gorgeous. I miss them! Kage is awesome, such a boy, but at the same time so tenderhearted. I love that kid. Max is such a stud. From the way he talks to his sweet hugs I am so going to miss our monthly visits from them. I can't talk about my Mom, Dad, Shawnacy, Lindsey, and Russ without getting teary. As for Brandon and Lindsay I still hold out hope that one day they will be with me in Phoenix. It has been such a rough week watching Lindsey and Paul getting settled and my mom looking for houses. I am being abandoned! They are so far away. I wish I would have taken more advantage when my mom and dad were close. I should have spent every weekend with them. Life is full of regrets right?
With all that said I miss my husband. Everytime I call he is doing another project so he can show me what he has done while we have been gone. He works harder and loves his kids more than any man I know. All I have to do is give him a hug and I know he loves me. For those reasons I will be coming home. I can't wait to see him.
Conclusion. I will miss the feeling of being with my family. But if there ever was a reason to go home I have it. It is because Jon is there and I am happy to do it! I love our home.

I love you! You are such an amazing mom, wife, sister, daughter, and most importantly friend! Your children are beautiful and amazing and are lucky to have you and Jon, as you are lucky to have them. I will never abandon you. I will visit often. Your the best, thanks for being you.
Hopefully we will be moving (relatively) close soon!! We'll drive down every other weekend!! I promise!! You can't ever move away if we end up in New Mexico - I don't know what I'd do if you left!!
P.S. Can your family please adopt me so I can "go home and be a kid again" too?
Hi Sweet Jaimee, sounds like you are having a great time. One of the reasons these times are so special is because they don't happen all the time and even you lived close to everyone everyday life would still be life. You should not look back you have been lucky to be able to spend alot of time with your family and make memories you will all talk about every time you get together. You and Jon are amazing parents and are making the home that your kids will now be so comfortable in and thanful for. You will be rubbing Brooklyn's and Allie's neck in church and playing zombies :-) in Verado. You will love being in this stage of your life where you will be passing this legacy of love onto your kids.
