Mothers' Day 2008

When you don't have a mother to celebrate, mothers' day is just not fun. I love my kids, and I love that they get excited about celebrating me, but I imagine this day will always be hard for me to get through. I am thankful for my Stepmom and my Mother in Law - I have really been blessed to have them in my life.... BUT, all of that aside, my wonderful children gave me wonderful gifts that I wanted to share.



They made the hand prints in Sunday School. Each hand has a reason they love me. Julian's says: "Because you let me ride my bike, because you make yummy dinner, because you are the best mom ever." Kathryn's says: "Because I'm nice, sweet and get her a drink (it says "ring"but she told me Ms. Crystal didn't understand her when she said "drink")." Then each made me a card at school...very nice.

But, I have to say, my favorite part of mothers' day this year was the cake - my favorite - hot fudge sundae cake. It was made by Julian and Kathryn. It is not much to look at, but man does it taste good!
