My Mother's Day Present

I HAD SUCH A WONDERFUL MOTHER'S DAY. I WOKE UP TO ANDREW BRINGING ME THE CARD HE PICKED OUT FOR ME...

WHEN I OPENED THE CARD IT PLAYED THE MUSIC FROM STAR WARS...

YOU KNOW,

THE "DARTH VADER" MUSIC.

AND IT SAID...

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY?" I SAID AS MARK BELLOWED WITH LAUGHTER. HE TOLD ME THE WHOLE STORY OF TAKING THE BOYS TO PICK OUT CARDS FOR ME AND THAT ANDREW PICKED THIS DARTH VADER CARD. HE TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO HIM THAT IT WAS NOT A MOTHER'S DAY CARD BUT ANDREW WAS ADIMANT THAT THIS WAS THE CARD FOR HIS MOMMY. I LOVE HOW HE WROTE HIS LITTLE NAME IN RED INK AT THE BOTTOM. NOW HE LOVES TO OPEN THE CARD AND "MARCH" TO THE MUSIC.

MASON IS SHOWING HIS "BIG BOY" SENSE OF HUMOR...

I LOVE HIS HANDWRITING!

OK, WHAT DOES A MOTHER NOT LOVE ABOUT HER BABIES?

MARK ASKED WHAT I WANTED FOR MOTHER'S DAY AND I SAID, "I JUST WANT A DAY THAT WE SLOW DOWN AND ENJOY EACH OTHER." WELL, THAT IS JUST WHAT HE DELIVERED. WE HAD A NICE LUNCH, A TRIP TO THE HARDWARE STORE TO LOOK AT MORE KITCHEN CABINETS, AND THEN MY FAVORITE...

WE HAD A PICNIC AT THE LAKE FOR DINNER AND FED THE BIRDIES AND SKIPPED ROCKS. I LOVE BEING A MOM.
