mother's day

On Mother's Day, I woke up to my kids telling me to stay in bed and read a book or a magazine or watch tv and before I could decide which one, I was reading a book or shall I say, a book was getting read to me.


Next, I was served breakfast in bed.  Grace had been working on this breakfast for the few days before.  (I did get real actual food a little later...thanks to John!)


Everyone gave me cards and flowers.  Grace made this self-portrait for me!  I love it!!!


We had a nice time at church...working in the nursery.  Grace helped me make Mother's Day gifts with the 3 and 4 year olds.


After church, we ate lunch at our favorite Mexican restaurant with Mimi and Grandma.  (I'm so sad that I didn't get any pics there.)  Then, we visited with Mawmaw.  If Grace ever wonders what she will look like as she grows up...here is her answer!


Now, I really love the self-portrait that Grace made me, but...this may be my favorite gift ever!  Grace was apparently very concerned that Carter refused to make me a Mother's Day gift at church.  He will NOT paint his hands at church...he hasn't made me anything in two years now.  So, she, I mean, Carter made me this card.


LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this!!!
