Mother's Day

My Sweets says that this was Mother's Day Part 1

I guess, due to the fact that he has had to be extremely busy this weekend and the coming week, that he didn't want me to feel jipped and said that Mother's Day would be continued next Saturday, too.

And, so you know me-

I just roll with the punches,

and I didn't try to talk him out of whatever he may have planned for next weekend, too-

Didn't want to protest and ruin any plans.

I'm real pleasant that way.

However, Part 1 has been wonderful all ready.

I got to go

to C's preschool presentation for Mother's Day,
where he had made a book mark for me, and he had answered cute questions about me

and then he sang to me.
Speaking of answering questions about MOM,

B answered some questions at school about
me, too, and between B & C,

I learned a lot about me, that I didn't know, like:

My mom is {19} inches tall

My mom weighs {99} lbs. (bless this child!)

My mom likes to wear {rockstar shirts}

My mom likes to eat {broccoli casserole}

My moms favorite place to eat is {Subway}

For fun, my mom {goes to the temple}

Ahhh, how do they come up with these things?,

So precious!

I also LOVE....

it when it warms up and I can finally get my planter boxes and containers

on my front patio full of cheery flowers.

And this year, I also sowed some Sunflowers to border my veggie garden.

Getting those things done were Holiday to me.

So I didn't bother to post any pictures about me looking all groggy-eyed during breakfast in bed- just imagine it.

But of course, after church, I wanted a picture of me and my handsome boys,

and it turned out to be almost too much for some people to bear.

so, after several shots that went something like this

I finally got one of semi-smiles

and sunshine

and patience

and tenderness

and calm

and goodness

and peace

and butterflies

and sunsets

and trophies

and chocolate cake

and EVERYTHING else that

the other picture DOESN'T show.

Which, by the way-

screaming,

crying,

and frustration

NEVER

happen at our house,

Only on Mother's Day.

And to close the day, I spent the evening

watching a movie and munching popcorn,

and having my babies curled

up to me.

It was a good one.

And since my Sweets is already off on his crazy week,

I guess I'll say good-night.

Thanks Babe.
