Mothers Day

I am not sure once a year is enough. But I guess we really do only get one birthday and one Christmas a year so I suppose it wouldn't be fair to have Mothers day once a month. :-) Just kidding.

About a week ago, a package was to arrive and I was given strict instructions to not even look at the size of the box. Kendra was to bring it in and hide it under the bed. The day before Kendra asked me about every hour if it was Mothers day yet. Sometimes I think she really gets the concept of time, but then other times ...I don't know.

Sunday morning I was awoken by every one with purple tulips and a gift bag. Kendra, with ants in her pants, looks up at Mark and says "can she open it now?" She was so excited for me to open it, however I don't think she even knew what it was until I opened it because it was still in the mailing package. ANY way it was a book. A really cool book! I was our blog printed out into a book. I LOVE it!!!! I love blogging because it has helped me keep a great record of my family, but I really don't enjoy the digital world we live in!! I don't text, I don't twitter, I don't even E-mail, so to have a copy of our blog in my hands is priceless to me!! I was showered with other little gift through out the rest of the day. But after opening the big gift in the morning, Cook Kendra showed up again. This time with a menu. Mark had printed out the cutest menu and she just had to circle how may and what I wanted on my crepes. She was beaming the whole time.

I love being a Mom!!! And the fact that I have the greatest kids in the world, makes being a Mom the best thing I have ever done in my whole life!!!
