What a great day! The kids were all so excited to give me the gifts they had made at school for me. Emily made a tile with a cute poem, which made me cry, and her handprint on it. She was so excited when I made room for it in my curio cabinet (where all my most special things go). Tyler was excited, but didn't want to show it too much, to give me a card he had made. It was a pop up card and on the inside it said "You make my heart jump for joy!" "My teacher made me write that", was his reply when I told him how much I loved it. Gavin didn't have anything homemade and felt a little bad. I told him he could give me a big kiss instead. He wrapped his grubby little arms around me and planted a huge kiss on my cheek, after eating a chocolate cupcake. Here is the evidence.... I loved it!
Travis surprised me with new clothes which I so desperately needed. Things just haven't been the same since I had Kate...
After church, we went to Travis' parents for dinner. Tyson and Ashley made Salmon and Halibut from their Alaska trip. It was delicious :)
Most mother's want to celebrate Mother's day by taking the day off. Not me. Mother's Day for me is all about celebrating being a mother, and I wanted my kids around me all day long. I love each of my children dearly and feel so blessed to be their mother. Thanks kids, for such a great day and being so wonderful! I love you all :)
