Mother's day

 

 I had a wonderful Mother's Day.

 

I got to sleep in till almost 11am!

My hubby made us breakfast, or should I say brunch since it was sooo late.

 

 

 

 

He picked out the most beautiful cards, one from him and one from the kids.

I also got a special massage and aromatherapy treatment... hubby done good!!

 

 

And I just got to spend the rest of the day with my babies.

The wonderful reason I get to celebrate this day.

 

My lil angel.... she is such a happy happy soul.

I hope I can make her as happy as I do now in 13 years when she's a crazy teenager.

 

 

My crazy lil guy that just amazes me sometimes. He is so loving towards the people he loves, he is attentive to his sister, and although too hyperactive and whiny at times he is too wise for his 4 years of life.

 

Here he is telling us he needs to check his email.

 

 

 

My mom came over in the afernoon and spend time with her grandkids and me of course.

Then the hubby and I grilled up some steak and potatoes for dinner.

 

 

As much as I love being appreciated and doted on during Mother's Day, I cannot forget two things.

One, the mother who gave me life. Who carried me for 9 months, who I depended on for nourishment and support and comfort and who sacrificed to be there for me as I was growing up. Not just my mother but also my grandmother who was a second mom to me.

 

Secondly, my children and what a blessing from God that they are. Of course without them I could not celebrate Mother's Day but also without them I would not be the person that I am today. I appreciate all they have shown me, the unconditional love, their dependance on me has taught me unselfishness and the miracle of life.

 

I truly have been blessed and I hope all the mother's out there had a great Mother's Day as well.
