I had a great Mother's Day with my family. My dad surprised me and came to church and then took me out to dinner. I know breaking the sabbath is bad but I LOVED the no mess and no work. What a treat! Ben was very understanding to my tears on that day. I just miss my sweet mom. But I am also grateful for the mom's that are here for me and take such great care of me. My friends are wonderful with their sweet words and phone calls. Jalaire who I consider my 2nd mom. She took care of me when my mom was dieing and she still is always making sure I am okay. And of course my wonderful aunts. I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. They have always treated me like I am their own! They love my kids and listen to all my worries!
Jaylynn did say that cutest thing to me that morning. She woke up and made me some hash browns. I love Benny Boy's cooking. She came into the bathroom as I was getting ready and this is what she said..." I wanted to get you something really special..so I was going to build you a hut so you could be alone all day without anyone talking to you. But I didn't know how. I just giggled....it's sad but so true...I would have loved it!
So as I reflect on this day I hate that I have to live without my mom...my best friend...my everything....but I am so blessed to have the people in my life that I have. I love my mother's that are all around me..that help me become a better mother to my kids! And of course I love being a mother to my kids. I need to appreciate this job a little more...but when you have twins that are almost three...it's a little hard to look for the good!
Check out this pillow I made with my friends. Isn't it cute? Hailey taught our girl group how to make these pillows. And yes it's all homemade....I stuffed it! The only problem that night was hitting a big red thing.Opps! Can u guess it??? I guess I'm glad I don't have my Van yet!
