Happy Mother's Day

Well, I had a great Mother's day, this is the first one where Kali was actually excited. At school she made me a flower sprayed with perfume and a candle holder with a tea light. At Mother's group she made me a beaded necklace, I had to wear it to church, I was surprised more mothers weren't wearing theirs. I woke up to Kali bringing my paper bag of gifts, she was so excited she tried to open the bag before I could. Spence and Kal made me a wonderful breakfast, we had waffles with ice cream, strawberries, peaches, and whipped cream, we also had bacon, sausage, eggs and o.j. It was great, I love breakfast food, especially bacon.

I always reflect on Mother's day about my life and I feel a little inadequate, then my husband tells me how wonderful I am, he thinks pretty highly of me. He really makes me feel like a wonderful woman and not only on Mother's day.

We went to the farm for dinner, which Ryan , Spencer's brother, made, it was great. We had lasagna, salad, garlic bread, hot wings, and wine gums. It was nice to visit with my in-laws, although lately we've been trying to plan a girls trip to get away from our kids... probably not the best to talk about on Mother's day.

Thinking about Mother's day made me think about Father's day, it's next month. I don't know how it is around other families, but I think everyday is Father's day at our house, and Spencer actually admitted that I was right. So next month it won't be any different than any other day, he might get a little present from Kali. Ahhh....my feminist self from a few years ago would be kicking my ace right now. Not that I claim to be a decent wife, and let me tell you, I'm not the best, but my husband has it pretty cushy. I think I am going to stop now.

Anyways, it's been rainy the past few days, and it snowed a couple weeks ago, I am just so excited that I don't have to water my lawn and how green it is. Life is good.
