Happy Mother's Day!!!

Happy Mother's Day to all of you out there!  I am blessed to have a wonderful mom and to also be a mom.  I had a wonderful day with family.  My gifts were all homemade and well thought out by my children (love it!!!).  Nothing bought in a store can compare to gifts that your children make and think are 'perfect for you'!

We started the day with church, then dinner with extended family, and then home to enjoy the wonderful sunshine.  We spent the afternoon playing kickball in the driveway with the kiddos and catching up on some yard work.  I kept getting the feeling that I was so thankful for having children that are willing to help and work around our house with little pushing from us.  They take pride in making things look nice and helping share in the responsibility.

Tonight as I read to 3 of my 4 children before bed, I thanked God that my life is so amazing.  It's not perfect, by any means, but we have so much to be thankful for.  I couldn't have asked for a nicer Mother's Day.  What did you do for mother's day?
