Mothers Day <3

This Mother's Day was one of my best yet! It was busy, but then, we always are! My day started late, which was much appreciated, as my girlies actually let me sleep in for once!! Happy MD to me! When I woke up, I was greeted by two smiling little faces and a couple pieces of (cold) toast that the girls buttered themselves! (thanks Josh! lol) After my breakfast in bed, Hailey brought me all the presents she had been collecting for me. I got a light up glass rose that says Best Mom on it, a beautiful handprint poem, a lovely homemade card, and a beautiful necklace that she made me at school (much nicer than the painted macaroni ones of my kindergarten days, thanks Mrs. Jenkins!!) Isabelle was up next with a very nice rose picture frame and beautiful picture she drew for me. I finally got out of bed, reluctantly, and we all got ready for a MD brunch at the inlaws. We mingled with the family, had a delicious brunch (my FIL makes the best cinnamon buns ever!) and I was surprised again by Hailey with a homemade heart shaped carrot cake with cream cheese frosting (Josh insists she made nearly the whole thing herself, to which she replies:and only 1 shell! I love my girl!!). After brunch we were off to Green Village to get the MD flowers for the Grandmothers. We stopped in at the house and I was very surprised to find a couple gerbera daisies and a card from my sweet, sneaky, wonderful friend! I was so surprised, and it completely made my day! Thanks Kelly! They look great next the the beautiful roses my sister gave me. We ended the day with a trip to my father's camp, and some take-out Diplomat chinese food (Thanks Josh!) with my parents. My cake was the perfect dessert, and it was so yummy! I couldn't have asked for a better day. Thanks to my amazing family and friends, I love you all!! xoxo
