Beckahm and I were more than thrilled to have Mike back after being away for 2 months working so hard to support our family. Needless to say it hasn't been the easiest time being of the status: "single mother" for 2 months, but some how the Lord graciously helped me through it. My hat goes off to those mothers who have to do one of the toughest jobs in the world—motherhood—on their own. I seriously pray for them every night that they will the strength, stamina, and patience to endure the times when they think they can not go any further.
It was precious to see Beckahm become reacquainted with his daddy again. He didn't know what to do with himself; he kept looking at Mike and then back at me like "is this stranger really okay?" It didn't take him long—nothing a little facial hair tickling his face couldn't remedy—for him to warm right up to his daddy.
We LOVE you babe! We are so grateful for your hard work this summer and dedication in providing for our family. Without you our dreams wouldn't become reality. We are so grateful to have you back home with us; your presence was sorely missed!!
Mikes presence almost seems surreal, I have to keep reminding myself "yea, I have a husband again!!!"
We got this from a friend in the ward and it was sized 0-3 so I thought I would put him in it at least once :) HAHA my lil' Rudolph
"Welcome Home"

Yay, for Mike being home! Hopefully we'll see you guys more now that you won't feel quite as overwhelmed being a single mom:) (seriously, imagine those moms who's husbands are off serving and gone way longer. I couldn't imagine)
I love B in his little hat. He looks like a different baby when you don't see his hair.
We're excited to hang out today!
Love that hat! So cute! I agree being a mother is hard, but doing it SOLO is way more harder. The things we experience to gain more compassion for others is so wonderful!
Could he be more cuter every minute I see him!!! I love him. Can't wait to see you all. Glad your man's home.
