Mother's Day......

Today has been a bit different from the Mother's Days I have gotten used to over the past 6 years. I am used to being treated like a queen for the whole day......feeling very special and appreciated.

I still feel appreciated and special, but my day wasn't the same as it usually is. My sister and her husband decided to surprise me with flowers last night since Stew isn't here to do that. I made breakfast for everyone this morning otherwise I think we would have just had cold cereal. I made Crepes, which are my favorite......unfortunately because they take SO long to make, mine were cold...... Oh well. We didn't make it to church today... Miss Ryan has had a sick tummy for about 2 days now and she got her dress dirty. :-( We didn't have anything special for lunch or dinner, but we did have some cake out at my Aunt and Uncle's house.

I did feel very special today when I chatted with Stew on Skype. He told me the other day that he got me an AWESOME Mother's Day gift. He was going to wait until he got here to give it to me, but I got him to show me...... He got me a Kindle!!! I have always wanted one and have loved borrowing Stew's to read books. I am SO excited to use it!!!

I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful husband, who knows just how to show me how much he loves and appreciates me...... even when we are about 2,000 miles apart. I love you babe...... Thanks for everything! Because of you I am able to be a mommy so some of the sweetest children ever!!!
