A Great Day!

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! I know I did....Dave did all the laundry, delivered breakfast and coffee in bed AFTER letting me sleep in, and we had a great BBQ dinner at good neighbor friends of ours that the men cooked up.

My favorite though was the cute cards and pictures that the kids made for me. Olivia has really been on a butterfly kick lately and I received two beautiful paintings from her, and Jake wrote some lovely things about me. One was in a little book that had prompts and another was a freestyle essay.

My Mother By Jacob

My mother likes to play with me.
My mother's favorite sport is kopa. (Croquet?!?)
My mother's favorite color is pink.
My mother is beutiful.
My mother is good at yoga.
My mother and I like to play SORRY!
I love it when my mother helped my get the medallion! ( A big time reading award at school)
Mother's favorite food is cilly. (Chili)
My mother is 49 years old. (What the HECK?!?!)

I love my mom because she lets me play with a friend. She helps me to get the medallion. We talk with each other. She helps me with the challenge. I like my mom because when I am sick she takes good care of me. She reads me storyies. I like my mom because she is great mom!

It doesn't get much better than that......
