Remember how yesterday was Mother's Day?

Well.

Let me introduce you to a very important mother in my life.

***Monday Meet 'n Greet***

Miss Janice Dixon

*Wife to Tom.
For 36 years!

*Mother to Angie/Chris, Emily/Jared, Jeff/Kim, Spencer/yours truly, Liz/Braden.
Yes, folks.
She's very much a mother to us all.

*Colorado Native.
However, grew up in good ol' Rexburg, Idaho.

*EPG.
{Emergency Preparedness Guru}
Seriously.
You have questions? She's your {wo}man.
In fact, she helps us be more prepared every Christmas.
I'm so grateful.

Four generations.
That's Grandpa Reese . . .and that's crying Reese
.

*Grand baby lover.
Make sure no one leaves hungry.
My kids know how to eat an ice cream cone after hanging at her house.

*Loves to be surrounded by her family.
And handles it quite well.
She once had 19 people stay at her house at Christmas.
No sweat for Janice.

I'm pretty sure Gavin took this picture.

*Ex-nurse.
And it's a great thing.
She's like my personal "on-call".

*Lover of the Gospel.
Did you know, she works in the Seminary building?
It's fun to call her.
She answers,
"Broomfield Seminary, this is Janice".

*One of the most generous people ever.
Would give you the shirt off her back.
Or the chair she is sitting in.
Or . . .well . . .almost anything.

*Favorite color: Baby Blue.

What a sweet tribute! I love the nurse comment. We do the same thing with Ryan's mom, Kris. She's our on call!
