I slept in 'til 9...the end!

that was about the extent of "spoiling" for me this Mother's Day! It was not the typical, breakfast-in-bed-eating-don't-lift-a-finger-to-cook-or-clean-take-a-long-nap-Daddy-will -take-care-of-the-kids-don't-you-worry-about-a-thing,-Mommy Mother's Day for me!
Q is in Rwanda, Africa, and I had two post-construction cleanings that had to be done no later than TODAY...an hour's drive from here!
so, I slept in 'til 9 but only because the kids happened to not wake up until then! I made French toast for breakfast, reminded the kids to wish me a Happy Mother's Day, and we rushed off to church. I helped in Truman's class and Eden came with me and helped me help.
We had KFC for lunch, but only because it was "on the way" to where we were cleaning, and we had a lot of work to do so it needed to be fast! Then, we cleaned and cleaned and cleaned and didn't get home until 10 o'clock PM! It was a long, very un-mother's day sorta day!
But, I could not be more grateful to God for blessing me with three beautiful children, and I got to spend the whole day with them and they were perfectly sweet and helpful. What more could a mother want?
...and a happy Mother's Day to my Mom! You are an amazing woman, I've learned so much from you. I miss you and love you!
