Happy Mama, Happy Day!



Happy Mother's Day!
Since I was queen of the day, I told my girls that mommy was going to pick out their outfits for church this morning. Thanks to Auntie Renee for the matching hot pink sweaters that came at Christmas (it was a chilly day), they looked down-right-darling for Mother's Day.

I was awoken this morning by Haven telling me she was taking me to a "fancy restaurant" and to follow her. She lead me to a beautiful breakfast spread at our very own kitchen table and I experienced five star service by my five year old! I felt so special.

I have been a mom for a little over five years and I feel like I am a totally different person in many ways... I am sure you moms out there can relate. Having kids has:
humbled me (HELLO, tantrums in public can reduce me to a blubbering mess).

opened my eyes to my Heavenly Father's love for me. So deep. So wide.

relaxed me (You mean I can't control everything?).

tapped into a whole new emotional side I never knew I had. I think I can cry on cue now.

slowed me down... so I don't miss the teas, the dance-a-thons and princess parties.

Thank you girls for teaching mommy a thing or two.
