Hello and Happy Mothers Day to all you Mommies with young and older children and Mommies to sweet fur babies! Mother's Day is such a wonderful celebration of all that we "do" and represent. Never before could I truly understand the hard work that comes with being a Mom until I had children of my own. There are times when my patience is tested over and over. There is the constant washing of dirty little hands and faces, and non-stop laundry. Bickering of who had it first, and that is mine not yours.
I remember the mornings when I could sleep in until 9am. Spend my Sunday's leisurely doing whatever I want, or taking a spontaneous trip out of town. Those days are loooooong gone, but I wouldn't change it for the world!!!! Being a Mom is the most rewarding gift ever!!!! Every night when I check on my sleeping babies I am reassured that this is truly a blessing and being a Mommy is the BEST!!!!
This week at my children's preschool both Vivian and Grants classes had Mother's Day tea parties. All the Mommies and children dress up in their "Sunday best" and we sipped tea and ate little sandwiches and cookies.
Grant bringing me a cup of tea and trying hard not to spill it.
"How many lumps of sugar Mommy?"
My Mother's Day gift from Grant. Sooo sweet!
Miss Vivi and her classmate Emmie.
Sweet little Vivi.
Mommy & daughter.
I cherish moments like these, they make you feel so special and so loved!!!! ๐
For all you Mother's I hope you've had a beautiful Mother's Day full of joy, happiness and love!!!!

BTW, I had to tell you that I have been collecting baby nursery planters. Do you remember how when you posted yours…(I believe a lovely lady had sent you one) and I told you that I had passed up so many of them at Goodwill many many times? Well, I have been planter crazy ever since….thanks a lot Jennifer! hee hee hee. I will be posting my recent finds tomorrow and I will be laying all the blame on you….lol!
Have a great weekend lovely lady,
Deanna ๐
How sweet! My daughters love to have tea parties! You look like you really enjoyed your Mother’s Day.

What a wonderful post. Grant and Vivi look so adorable. I do miss those days when my children were little. My daughter will be leaving for Hawaii on the 24th and hopefully the 38 year old, will soon get married and give me some grandbabies. Happy Belated Mother’s Day
I found your blog from a link on another blog today and just have to say that you have the cutest children! I love the picture of your little boy bringing you the tea-so adorable with that proud little grin on his face!
adorable!
Oh my goodness, what a lovely blog, total gorgeousness!
All of your ceations are beautiful and I am in love with your circus shadowbox, I would love one in blue for my little man.
I nearly fell off my chair when I saw your collection of picks, a wonderful collection. I can’t find them anywhere here in the UK along with word tickets. Obviously something us Brits don’t feel the need for and yet to you lovely American ladies they seem to be a necessity lol and who could blame you!
Looking forward to your next post
((hugs))
