What a Grandma!

I am lucky in so many ways. A great husband, 2 beautiful healthy children and a wonderful life. But I am also extremely lucky to have the mother(and father) I have. When Jonas was born, Mom spent 3 weeks here in Denmark to help us. She cooked, cleaned, helped with the kids and kept me sane! She spent many hours rocking Jonas to sleep(and herself at times:) ). So, when we decided to make the trip over for Christmas, Thomas could only stay 2 weeks(poor guy) and I wanted to stay longer. Being the very giving person that Mom is, she offered to fly back with me so I could stay a month. She stayed 10 days and again was a HUGE help! Mom, I will never be able to "pay you back" for all that you've done for me. You are the most unselfish person I know because you never stop giving to me and my family even if it means leaving Dad for a week or 2. You always put me(and Dad, Chad and my family) first before you think of yourself. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I LOVE YOU MORE!!!!!! Grandma has a special way of rocking Jonas. He cuddles up to her and is out like a light!

Here's Grandma and Jonas when he was a newborn.

Oops! Grandma rocked herself to sleep as well!
