Mothers Day

Rebekkah came home from school on Friday with this. She was so proud of it, but was very upset because she couldn't hide it. She didn't want me to see it until today. I couldn't believe how mad she was!!! But it's still cute and I LOVE IT!!!! She did a great job.
Abby's present was able to be put in a big envelope that said...DO NOT OPEN UNTIL MOTHERS DAY!!! And she kept reminding me not to open it. Thursday night when I went in to go to sleep, I found the envelope under my pillow!! But waited until today, I just love the picture of her!! so cute!!!

And then there's Walker, what better present is there then this???!!!!

Although it's been a sweet day, it's also been a little emotional for me. My family was to come over today for dinner but the kids, yesterday, got sick with the stomach flu. So I'm extremely sad because I can't be with my mom today on mothers day. Even though I saw her yesterday, it still makes me sad. She is such an amazing, selfless, sweet person, I love her to death. How about I give just a little example?? Yesterday morning I had a hair appt at 11:30. I got all 3 kids packed into the car, and the car would not start. Long story short, there was no way I was going anywhere in that vehicle until my husband could come home and fix it. WHAT??? MISS MY HAIR APPT?? ARE YOU CRAZY?? I've been waiting for this! My hair is driving me nuts!!! So I called my mom..."mom, my car won't start...will you come and get me and the kids??? (forget everything your doing and drive 30 minutes to get me and then drive back home) AND............she did, of course. All for me and my stupid haircut!!! Anyway, I love this woman with every fiber of my being!!!! And she deserves the very best out of life...so I miss you mom...today...this being mothers day....

What cute gifts! How did the haircut turn out?

And yes it all comes down to expectations. I try not to let it bother me, but it still does.
