Happy Mother's Day! This year I had a lovely Mother's Day. I received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from Su and Jess down in Atlanta, a handprint picture from my Little Chief, and a new blinds for the downstairs which Troy lovingly installed for me that night! Also, we were invited to Bridget and Bob's for a Mother's Day lunch. I slept in, had breakfast made for me and enjoyed the day : )

"Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body." ~Elizabeth Stone
"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom." ~Marcel Proust
"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts." ~Washington Irving
I hope all of the Mama Ladies in my life had a beautiful, wonderful Mother's Day. I missed you Su, Mom, Grandma, and Anna. You all deserve the most wonderful blessings and I am thankful for the mothers in my life, my family and my friends. The women who have influenced my own adventures into motherhood are such a diverse, creative collective. I have learned who I want to be, what I agree with (and what I don't), how to love, and how to raise my children to the best of my ability. Thank you for your love and support.
Happy Mother's Day to us all!
