Mother's Day 2011

we had a beautiful mother's day this year and so fun now to be blessed with 2 children!  also, we were able to spend it with my mom which was wonderful, because she is wonderful!  we missed our other wonderful moms (my mothers-in-law) who are so good to us and so good to our babies.  i woke up to a breakfast of blueberry pancakes, strawberries, and chocolate milk (made by charlie) that was delish.  there was also a beautiful bouquet of flowers from my mom's yard including roses, gardenias, and peonies (she has been busy this spring) that charlie and smith had gone out early and picked for me.    all of us went to church together and then we came home and charlie and i got busy on a lunch to honor my mom.  we just relaxed the rest of the day and enjoyed being together.

i hope that i am living up to the example that my mom set for me and that i know my sitti (grandmother) set for her.  she is unconditional with her love and so, so giving of her talents and time!  smith and bode are precious and i cannot wait to know them as they grow and change.  smith is changing so fast and has such curiosity and expression and bode has been such a great addition with a gentle and relaxed spirit!  i love my boys and especially my husband who really knows how to love me and treat me amazing.....he is unreal in so many ways....i am very, very blessed.
