A Mother is. . . .

Happy Mother's Day!  God has blessed me with 3 beautiful kids. 

My mother's day started last night with dinner.  We were going to eat at Outback and after waiting 50 minutes and some drama I won't go into we decided to go to Jason's Deli.  I told Mike to go ahead and take the kids in and order I was going to call and make a complaint on the hostess at Outback.  When I was done and went into Jason's he had order and made me a salad.  (It was exactly what I wanted. He knows me so well.)  Jessica informed me that the salad was for all of us to share and yes all of them shared MY salad.  It didn't upset me it made me laugh because that is what a mom does.  She shares her food with her children.  I did want a soup to go with my salad so I ordered some Broccoli and Cheese soup and guess who wanted to try some?  Yep you guessed it all of my precious kiddos.  I just chuckled to myself.  It made me feel so much love that I was sharing my food with my kids and wasn't a bit upset.

Mother's Day
Hannah woke me up and said "mom we made you breakfast."  I opened my eyes to see Jessica holding the breakfast tray with a bowl of soggy Rice Crispy cereal.  I choked down the soggy cereal and the whole time I felt so special.  They came back with a glass of milk too.  When I was finished I took the breakfast tray to the kitchen and they were laughing and hiding paper.  I pretended that I didn't know what they were doing.  They made me a couple of cards.

Next we went to Krispy Kreme for brunch then to Target where Dillon got sick and threw up all over the shopping cart and floor.  We came home and I started making food for our BBQ we were having in the afternoon.  The girls played with the neighbors on the slip and slide. It brought me joy to watch the kids playing and having a great time.  So I guess you could say I really didn't get the day off and I didn't get waited on hand and foot but you know what I am a mom and my job is to take care of my family and that is just what I did today and LOVED IT.  It was a great mother's day.
