Mother’s Day for the Luckiest Mom in the World
Posted By pamelamyers on May 9, 2016
Another Mother’s Day has gone by and for another year, I got to be the luckiest mom in the world. It is so hard to remember how lucky I am sometimes. The day to day craziness of motherhood, and life in general, overwhelms you and you forget. This year, I wanted to make a real effort to enjoy my day and to take the time to savor every second with my little one.
The day started out nicely (actually, it started the day before when Mark brought me flowers from Sam and the kittens!)
On Mother’s Day morning, that started early, of course (Sam’s is not one for sleeping in), we immediately had to open presents! I did manage to make Samantha wait until Mark woke up so that we could have some pictures. Sam’s first gift was one she made at school. I love it!
Me and all my babies. 🙂
Sam also made me a card at school. She was very proud of how it was decorated.
The “interview” that her teacher did cracks me up. She did ok in some respects (although I do NOT have blue eyes) and well, I would guess you can figure out some of the other issues with her answers. 🙂 My favorite answers are that I like to watch the weather (I am always shushing her on days I am home so I can hear the forecast) and that I am always saying, “You have to eat!” She does know me well.
My mom and Mark’s dad came over for dinner and we had more presents after. She and Mark had picked out some cool cake molds in the shape of kitty paws and Lego people. I also got a whole bunch of nice clothes. I made out ok, believe me.
The best part of the day according to Sam is the cake!
Time for family portraits! It was a bit chilly for Mother’s Day, hence the sweaters! It is ridiculous. Summer is never going to come.
Luckiest mom in the world. That’s me.
