Mother's Day - My Mom


Today is Mother's Day and I am missing my mom! I am thankful for a godly mother who prays for all her kids and grandkids and is selfless and loving. She is the glue of our family and is precious, amazing and wonderful.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, MOM!!

Mother's Day - Me

This morning I woke up to a ham & cheese omelet, the all-essential cup of coffee and homemade cards from the kids. Warren always stresses about getting me the 'right gift' but I told him he was off the hook because its not about me getting a gift from him, but having precious moments and heartfelt cards made by my kids.

The flowers on Cullen's 'arrangement' read:
My favorite thing to do with my Mom is - cuck (cook) with her
My Mom loves me best when: i dro her pichrs (I draw her pictures)
A special thing I will do for my Mom is: clen (clean) up for her

Jordan is into Diary of a Wimpy Kid so both he and I look like characters from the book.

After church we went to Texas Roadhouse for lunch - a great place for steak and ribs! Warren's 'gift' to me was to cut the grass and clean up the backyard which I really appreciated - it was getting so bad I thought I saw Dr. Livingstone stroll by our window last week. While he was working hard in the yard, I took a 2 hour nap and then we went for a stroll along the highline canal where Cullen continued to spoil me with weeds, tree blossoms and finally a tulip.

Cold Stone Creamery at Aspen Grove was giving each mom a free ice cream so we went there and finished off our afternoon with ice cream.

Jordan declared that Mother's Day is far too short and should be extended and I second that motion! Next year it should be Mother's Week instead of Mother's Day.
