Happy Mother's Day

My Mother's "Day" has actually been taking place for a few days now. It started with a towel with The Boy's hand print from preschool on Thursday. Along with that came a glimpse of how he views his mom. Apparently he doesn't like much of what I do as he left that part blank, but I thought the rest was pretty cute. I continued to be spoiled on Saturday when my sisters and I took my mom out for her traditional "Day Out With the Girls." We went to Color Me Mine and spent a few hours choosing and painting our own piece of pottery (pictures of finished products to come later). It was so much fun to sit and enjoy each others company.
After we crafted ourselves out we headed to lunch at the Blue Lemon (YUM!) and walked around Temple Square soaking up the sun and admiring the gorgeous flowers. So fun!
This morning I was treated to sleeping in until 8:00! My sweet kiddos and husband surprised me with a big, "Happy Mother's Day," crayoned pictures (mostly of Transformers), and a french toast breakfast. It just doesn't get any better.

I am so blessed to be "Mommy" and wouldn't trade it for any other job in the world -- though I'd probably be a lot better at a few other jobs (I mean, hey, I can flip hamburgers with the best of them).

Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mothers who inspire, motivate, and help me along. A special Happy Mother's Day to my own amazing Mom and to Linda, my wonderful husband's Mother.
