It was an uneventful day this year. It was a little sad for me actually. To be honest, the day has been bittersweet for me since Ezra passed away. Its painful that I cannot share it with all my children. And, on top of that, this year, I couldn't share it with Peter because he is in Portland. So, yes, it was a little sad.
Also, since I had a final on Monday morning, I had to spend most of the day studying. Not exactly what I would have chosen, but that is how it worked out.
The kids made me cute little gifts in school (Alayna's was a magnet with her picture, and Jeremiah's was a "Why I Love My Mom" book that he wrote). They also made me homemade cards that morning before I got out of bed (they get up early, much earlier than I am ready to be up and about). I also received a heartwarming card from Peter; he's so good at picking cards. It said all the things I needed to hear this Mother's Day. So, even though we didn't do anything "special", the day did not pass unnoticed. They even sang to me "Happy Mother's Day" to the theme of "Happy Birthday". It was quite adorable indeed.
I am so blessed to be a Mom. And to have such a wonderful Mom. Hope it was a Happy Mother's Day for everyone all around.

Well...if you were feeling up to going and studying that Saturday, I was going to have them make something for you as well. :) The thought was there. xoxo
