{Mother's Day}

I hope that everyone had a great Mother's Day...Cody and my boys spoiled me and now I am feeling the pressure to make Father's Day just as great :o). On Sunday Rhett asked me "When is Kid's Day?" I told him that everyday is Kid's Day! They always get their meals prepared for them, snacks on demand, playtime with friends, etc!

My kids love all holidays..and so they were excited for Mother's Day since the week before. Ethan came home from preschool Thursday with a little present he had wrapped for me at school, and he ran upstairs to hide it until Sunday. Saturday the kids wanted to make me breakfast, so they sent me upstairs to wait for my surprise. I heard them rummaging around downstairs, so excited to cut something with a knife....good thing it was a butter knife and they decided that Rhett should do it since he was the oldest. When they brought me my plate they were so proud....oh I love these moments!! (it was blackberries, apples, and cheese).

Sunday morning Cody was able to stay home since they didn't have meetings at it was so nice to have him there to help get the kids ready. He made us a yummy breakfast. After church we went over to my parent's house for dinner prepared by my sisters....it was so nice.

I fell so lucky to be a mother to my three sweet boys. They have so much energy, enthusiasm, excitement....every day with them brings something new to laugh about. They keep me on my toes for sure, but I love them so much and feel so lucky to have the life that I do with Cody. Who would have thought that this girl from a family with 5 girls would be a mother to all boys and love it like I do.... Don't get me wrong I have my hard days, my moments when I call Cody in tears because I feel like I am failing as a mother, or am so tired of the fighting or teasing - but all in all they are amazing children and I feel blessed to be their mother.
