I know SO many Mothers! I know Mothers, and expectant Mothers, and Mothers of adult children, and Mothers of young ones. Mothers of teen agers. Mothers who have birthed their children. Mothers who have adopted their children. It really doesn’t matter how God made them Mothers, they are all blessed to be called Mother, Mom, Momma, Mommy… And they are all women who have impacted my life in some wonderful, special way. Thank you for showing me how to be the Mother that I have become.
I would love to be able to say that my siblings and I celebrated Mother’s Day all together with our Mom, but I can’t. Thankfully though, after a very difficult issue on Easter Sunday (and neither of them talking to her since then), at least my brother and sister did visit Mom for Mother’s day.
Today started with breakfast “in bed”. Kati made pancakes, and set a nice tray for me which included a little vase with some fresh lilacs (my FAVES!!). Well, as soon as the tray was set on the bed, the vase knocked over, so I was actually awakened by some nice cold water spilled all over me! LOL I couldn’t even go back to sleep because it was all over the bed (and me!). Yaaawn!! LOL It’s the thought that counts, so how could I be upset?!
We got ready for church and picked up my Mom. Today was also the day that was chosen to dedicate Timothy. After church, we went to lunch. When we got home, the littles took naps (oh yeah, and so did I hehe). Kati wanted to cook dinner, so I let her! She did a great job, we had spaghetti, garlic bread, and for dessert, she even made brownies.
Mother’s day or not, I still had to do some “housework” because if I don’t keep it up, it’s just more for me to do tomorrow. So, I scrubbed the kitchen floor, cleaned the counters, vacuumed, etc. I drew the line at laundry though; it will still be there tomorrow (or till I get to it). LOL
Today has been a nice day. I’m so blessed to be a Mother, God has blessed me with four beautiful, talented, and loving children.
