Mothers day 2010

Call me crazy, but I think that Mother's day is one of my favorite holidays. I didn't live it up this year like I normally do by requesting it to be a full two day holiday. This year I didn't want to be coddled and take time off from my motherly duties. This year, to celebrate, I wanted to be a mom. Although, John did let me take a nice Sunday nap while he held down the fort after church.

I loved that the first words out of John's mouth Sunday morning were, "Happy Mother's Day, can I get you breakfast in bed?" I told him that I would rather take a shower while he woke the children up and fed them breakfast. That was a wonderful shower. I loved the homemade gifts and I especially loved the Primary presentation. Why does that always make me cry? I love being a mother to my children. I think I am the luckiest person alive to have these 4 beautiful children in my life, and my wonderful husband as my companion through it all.

Here are Hannah's thoughts on motherhood:

M-Makes me smile

O-organized

T-Teaching me not to do bad things

E-entertaining

R-really, really nice
