Happy Birthday Grandma Jevne

People often say you only have one mom.. well, she sure is the one that knows us the best, until you get hitched.. But when your mom is more than thousands of miles away... who is there to rescue the day, listen or help??? My mother-in-law.. but i often wonder where did the term come from.. laws to have more moms? moms with laws? Anyhow.. after Samuel was born, I joined the "Grandma" club, and I called her grandma too.. also because the kids would be confused with two mom-calling in the house... the truth is.. she has been there for us. I even met her at the same time I met my husband.. and thought, what a sweet mom (which gave Jay automatic points! ha ha). I cant count how many times she drove the 16 hours from Omaha, NE to Provo, UT with no specific reason but to see us or for other important circumstances like moving, having babies, graduation, BYU games...
Really, she has been there...When we were two +1.. +2..We simply enjoy the everyday things.. that makes a routine now days in our lives..Truth is she..
loves serving others,
puts her family before herself,
teaches us all the time with her wisdom from moves, meeting people, callings, accidents...
cant say no to the grand kids.. or grown up kids..
scrapbooks for fun and looks like art..
really knows how to cook, sew, drive..
and ultimately spoil.. plus LOVE of course..
oh, and makes the best chocolate chip cookies ever!!!
That is why we made her one of her favorite cakes.. (sopapilla cheesecake), and the boys just enjoyed helping her blow the candles.. even Benjamin from his high chair.. then Samuel gave her the card we made her and a small gift... which the boys were intrigued to see.
Happy Birthday Grandma!!! we love you.
