Mother's Day

I felt so loved this Mother's Day. I awoke to a parfait breakfast and gifts. The kids made sure I did not help with the preparation. Eva had me sit on an extra pillow and pink blanket. The weather was extremely beautiful as well. 

Luke's card said...

M is for the many times you have hugged me,

O is for the outstanding things you do,

M is for the memories all together

Mom, I am so glad I have you!"

Hudson's said...

I am like a flower that is raised with love by you. You help me grow up big and strong mom. Thanks for all you do,.

Eva's said...

I remember the time that you bought me the cutest dog in the world.

I like when you hug me.

If my mom were a flower she would be a rose.

If my mom were a song she would be "Sugar" because she likes to dance to it.

If my mom were a super hero she would be wonder woman because she helps people.

If my mom were a candy she would be M&Ms because she gives them out on Halloween.

If my mom were a car she would be a van so we would be all together.

If my mom were a color she would be magenta.

If my mom were an animal she would be a bunny because she likes bunnies like me.

If my mom were a TV show she would be a cooking show because she likes to cook.

Thank you for loving me.

 We celebrated with Dave's family at Eberts and dinner following at our home. We celebrated with my family on Friday (not pictured)
