I can honestly say that this Mother's day was absolutely perfect! I guess I didn't expect much this year and I'm not just saying that to be a sad sally.. ( sad sally.. what susie c'mon) I just know we're trying to get our finances straight so I knew we weren't doing much.
With that being said, I woke up at 7:30 am which is sleeping in around here! David made sure to keep the boys quiet and in their rooms while the baby and I slept in. It was amazing! On our dresser David had picked roses from our landlord's yard (shhh don't tell on him), he made me a card, like he actually made the template and added pictures in it and typed it out. He also had bought me the new Magnolia Journal since he knows I love to have them every season. It was a refreshing morning to wake up to.
We got ready for church and headed out.
The sermon was so good! We learned that as parents, the biggest gift we can give to our children is their faith and their relationship with God. I want my boys to forever remember me as their mom with big faith. If there is anything in the world I want them to know its that anything is Possible with Christ.
All the boys came out of their classes with crafts in hand for me! It's the most precious thing ever! Since we don't do preschool and are homeschooling, seeing them do crafts elsewhere and for me, makes me so happy!
After church we were not planning on going out to eat but David surprised us and took us to Island's. I had the beach bowl and man was it tasty!
We finished the day by me walking Goodwill for an hour while David went home with the boys to mow an clean up the yard and then we loaded up the car with the scooters and went to the skatepark. It really was a good, chill happy day and I would not have changed any bit. I'm so thankful I get this role of being their mom. I am forever changed because of this title! And although it is the hardest job I have ever had, it's paying more than money ever could.
I mean, C'mon, look at this face! I get to wake up to this every single day! And to three other little monkeys that are always fight , playing , laughing crying and needing me every second of everyday. ;)
