I have to step back a bit and back track to Mother's Day. This is just too darn great not to document!! We were in Utah with my mom celebrating Mother's Day and gearing up for Aunt Jill's wedding. I was happy to be with my mom but a little sad that we weren't with Jeff. He was flying home from Virginia that day. The girls made sure I had gift to open and they were both VERY excited about them and EXTREMELY pleased with what they created. They took very good care of their gifts, making sure they were wrapped nicely and packed neatly in their suitcases. I have to say, by far these are the best gifts I have received from my girls!!
Maddie made a recipe for me and she hit the nail on the head. 3 tablespoons fashion? That's all I get? What's wrong with my fashion? You don't like me in my PJ's as much as I am? I love them. They are very comfortable!! I'll work on that and see if I can't at least get myself up to 1/2 cup fashion!! Also, 10 gallons of sweetness and hard work!! Yep I am all sweetness and totally hard working :) I have to say I appreciate all the humor she gave me credit for. I do think I am seriously funny!!
Then we move on to little Miss Lauren. She knows me very well!! Her book will make you chuckle right out loud!! In fact, it brought tears to my eyes and warmness to my heart!
Yes, the best care a mother can give!
This one is a stretch on the drawing. I can't draw worth a darn but I've got mad coloring skills and it's true.....I will smuggle my kids with hugs and kisses until they can out run me!
Very true!! We love cooking together and getting our toes done. Is there anything better than girl time with your daughters? Lauren is after my heart!! She LOVES cleaning and organizing...just like me!
This is true. I love sleeping and it's the thing I've missed most now that I am a mom. I can't remember the last time I was able to take a LOOOOONG nap. If only I had more time to myself!! As for Words with Friends...it's become a family game. My kids love to help me play and we've learned so many words. Did you know qat, whap, jeon, yutz, phi, and qis are real words.
Yes!! I miss Virginia terribly!! It was a wonderful time in my life and if I could rewind the clock and do it all over again if I would do it in a heartbeat. Life was so simple then!! I am glad Lauren was born in Virginia. I had the best Dr. and the best hospital stay ever. I seriously felt like I was on vacation. All I did during my stay was love on my new little girl and take tons of pictures. Mom, Maddie, Jeff and a few close friends were my only visitors and life was good!!
Whew....cleaning the house can be very tiring. I would lay on the couch and watch the maid do all the work! Maybe the maid would even bring me a nice drink and some chocolate to eat :)
BJ's Rocks!! We love their food
Yes, I love having a big bowl of cereal in the morning!! I won't share my chocolate but I will share my Cheerios. Good thing we don't by the new chocolate Cheerios. I don't know what I would do!!
Thanks girls!! These gifts are priceless treasures to me!!
