Mother's Day

On Mother's Day morning I woke up to this on the kitchen counter.  It was a vase of 5 blue carnations with on pink in the middle.  Don said it was for the 5 boys surrounding me their mom.  It was quite sweet.  There was also a bunch of stuff from Bath and Body Works.  The kids and Don made me strawberry waffles for breakfast.  I have to say this was one of the better Mother's Days I have had not because of the kids or Don because they always try and make it special but I always go to church and come home feeling soooo crappy. This year was ok because there was only 1 talk during Sacrament that listed all the things that mother's are supposed to do that make you feel guilty if your not.  The other talks were fine and there was a cute primary presentation where the kids sang 2 songs and 2 of the older boys got up and told some special things about the different moms that their kids had said.  It was very sweet.  I taught my Sunday School class and then went to Relief Society where that lesson had nothing to do with Mother's Day which was fine by me.  I got a nap when I got home and the house stayed very quiet.  We just had leftovers from Saturday's bridal shower so there was not even a big mess to deal with from dinner!  Cayden had made me 2 cards, a picture magnet and those cute flower pens at school and gave them to me earlier in the week.  It was a nice day!
