Mothers Day

Mothers day is always a difficult day for me and this year was no different.  I thought about my mom a lot and how much she would have enjoyed being a grandma.  Luckily, my girls have a lot of very special people that are like grandma's in their life which I am very grateful for.  That means I also get to have a lot of second moms and those wonderful women mean the world to me!  

So, of course I cried many tears on Sunday, but I also focused on my two girls that I get to be a mommy to.    We started our day by going to church and it was there that Katie made me a card with her hand print in bright pink paint.  It is the cutest thing and now I see why my mom kept something similar that I made for her all those years.  After that we just hung out at home as a family.  I didn't have to cook dinner or do any dishes and I was surrounded by love.  It was a great day!

And the perfect way to end a wonderful day....
