Let me tell you about my mother's day! This year my kids and husband all presented me with a card, my kids are ages one to six, but somehow, some way my husband was able to find cards that fit each individual relationship between myself and that child. It was precious. From there we went to church and listened to an awesome sermon. After church we went to my parent's house and let me tell you we had a ball!!!!
My husband is an awesome cook so he was in the kitchen making parmesan crusted salmon, double stuffed sweet potatoes, and spinach. The rest of the family, which was my mom, dad, sister, sister's boyfriend, grandmother, two daughters, son, niece, and myself were all outside. We played t-ball, blew bubbles, and played an old school game of hopscotch. We had the most amazing time ever!!! When we went inside my mom made strawberry daiquiris for the mothers and we sat around and laughed about the good ole days. It was awesome because had we went to a restaurant we would not have been to laugh and joke as much as we did.
I share this to remind you that it's not all about the money, but instead about those special family memories you can make together. My entire family is still talking about this, and how my 74 year old grandmother was trying to play hopscotch. It's a day we will forever remember and goes down as the best mother's day ever!
