Happy Mommies

This years Mother's Day weekend has started off with a bang. My kids have brought me goodies that they have made for me at school. In addition Andrew's special education class put on an awesome Mother's Day concert that I attended.

I am finding myself at a loss for words to describe how much I love my children. They are my pride and joy. As they grow older and their personalities begin to show I find it so much fun to explore life with them. Their views on things are interesting and I see how they grow during tough teaching moments.

Both of my children were brimming over with excitement to give me their gifts. Megan hand decorated a box that contained a chocolate cupcake and a personal homemade card. Andrew gave me a potted plant with a picture of him stuck in and a card as well. They were really glowing to see my reaction to their hard work.

Andrew's Mother's Day concert just touched my heart. They performed 3 songs and played the marimbas. It was so awesome to see him getting into his performance and having so much fun. After they invited us the to support center for cookies and a gift of flowers. He was equally excited to have me in his class and to show me what he had for me.

It was so special to be among those little spirits. I feel so blessed at all that Andrew has taught me as his Mother. It has been an interesting journey that has taught me so much and I feel truly honored to have the experience.

I have no idea what the rest of the weekend has in store, but my cup is already overflowing. Thank you to all the women in my life that have Mothered me with their advice, friendship, and listening ear. There is truly nothing like the influence of a Mother.
