Mother's Day 2010

Really? Me? How did I get so LUCKY???



Mother's Day was amazing yesterday! I am so lucky to have 2 beautiful little girls. I am so happy that I get to be their mom. I am happy to give them baths, make their meals, wash their clothes, taxi them around, clean up after them. I AM SO LUCKY! I sometimes need to be reminded of the things that are important in life. I have never KNOWN more then I KNOW now how lucky I am to be their mommy.

The day started out with Mitch letting me sleep in while he and the girls made some fabulous cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Morgan also set the table and got the house decorated for the Mother's Day Party she was having all day! SO SWEET! We then got ready for church and out the door. Mitch did everything (except the girls' hair). He really didn't let me lift a finger yesterday. He spoiled me rotten.

After church I got to come home and have a Mother's Day nap. We tried to convince Morgan that Mother's Day is for napping, just like Thanksgiving was about eating turkey, but she wasn't buying it. She might miss something if she closes her eyes for an hour!

After napping Mitch planned a great dinner at my mom's. He bought all of the ingredients for crepes. I love (and miss deeply) European Connections, so he went ahead and got all the ingredients and made his own little European Connections at my mom's house. IT WAS SOOOOOO GOOD! He also made dessert crepes. What a man I have!

Not only am I lucky to have two sweet little girls, I am lucky to have Mitch. I so grateful for my sweet handsome husband, for his caring nature and his sense of humor. I am happy to know that he would do anything for me and I hope that he knows I would do the same for him. My family means the world to me, there is NOTHING more important then my family and the time I have to spend with them.

My night ended with Morgan (who was too shy to get up in Sacrament with the rest of the kids) singing me a song that she made up about me. It was so sweet. At the end I was getting a little bit teary and she said... "Mom, are you going to cry or what?" I asked her if I was supposed to cry and she said... "Just a happy cry because my song made you so happy." She is so right! Her song did make me happy.

What a great Mother's Day! Thanks Mitch and girls.
