On Monday, I got a massage. Ahhh.
On Tuesday, lovely friend A surprised me with a shellac pedicure, early for Mother's Day, which was such a relaxing treat.
On Thursday, I got my hair cut. It's not something I do too often, so it feels like a special occasion.
On Saturday morning, Jacob slept for an extra hour, giving us an extra restful night. We got up and I made bacon and eggs for my boys. Then, we threw on our sweats and went out to the yard, scooping leaves, pulling weeds and acting silly. It was already warm for a May morning, and we stayed out for nearly four hours. We visited with family, did some home repairs, and last night, Mike and I got out for a date. It wasn't extravagant -- we went to Swiss Chalet and to see The Avengers -- but it was perfect.
I took my boy to swimming lessons today, as I do each Sunday morning. I looked at the other mums at the pool and smiled, hoping they were having the same kind of day, and week, that I've been having.
I'm sure you'd agree that it's not about the things or the gestures, it's just about being a mum. With my sweet boy and another little one on the way, I am busting, today and every day, that I have this life.
Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful Mum, my lovely mother-in-law, and all of my dear friends who are celebrating today with their families xo

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
ReplyDeleteI mean, what you say is valuable and all. However just imagine if you added some
great visuals or video clips to give your posts more, "pop"!
Your content is excellent but with images and
video clips, this site could certainly be one of the most beneficial in its niche.
Good blog!
