Mother's Day 2011

How great to be honored for something that I feel is such a priviledge. Motherhood is a blessing and a joy. I could not imagine my life without my little girls.

Saturday, Tim brought me breakfast in bed and took Nora to ballet so I could sleep in. When they returned, Nora was so excited to tell me about the cake she decorated for me at Publix. She said "I use purple because Mommy LOVE purple!" How cute. There was even a pink candy rose in the center. This cake was an awesome gift. I really did love it - so much I cried. Now I know what my mom meant by homemade gifts are the best. Nothing from a store could have or would have been as great as that cake. :D (Thanks Tim!) Tim and Nora then went to spend the evening together -giving me the day off. What did I choose to do? Sleep and watch Criminal Minds. :D I also started to clean my room. WOW! The things that make me happy . . . .

Sunday, we went to pick strawberries at Harry Stacy Farm. This is becoming a Mother's Day tradition that I enjoy very much. This year, Nora was more interested in picking strawberries from the basket to fill her tummy. :D We had a great time. Once home, Tim prepared a wonderful steak dinner. What a great day!
