Mother's day at our house started on Saturday, which was birthmother's day. We texted both of our birthparents and thought about them because without them, we wouldn't be parents. We are grateful for their love and sacrifice that allowed us to be a family! Sunday, Benjamin stayed home sick from church so I got to go to church with just Britton and watch him sing mother's day songs for me. He did great!
We got to talk to all of the many mothers in our lives and go to dinner at my mom's house where the men cooked a yummy dinner and then cleaned up. The boys decorated my present by drawing pictures for wrapping paper and Britton made the cutest book about me in school. He really does pay attention because he got everything just about right! Our boys are too cute and I love being their mom! Here is what Britton's book for me said:
My Mom's favorite food is: white milk
But she doesn't like: chocolate milk
The thing my mom likes to do for fun is : exercise (so not true but I love the picture he drew of me with big muscles)!
My mom helps our family by: cleaning
My mom helps our family by :Making decisions (the picture was my favorite. He drew a picture of me and then wrote blah, blah, blah coming out of my mouth).
When my mom daydreams, she things about: Me!
She spends most of her time doing: washing our clothes (sad, but true).
If mom could have one wish come true, she would wish for: A baby
Britton really knows me! I was surprised by how well he answered the question. I had a great mother's day! Every day I think about how lucky I am to be a mom, but it's nice to have one day where everybody gets to celebrate motherhood!

After reading Spencer's, I don't think he knows me very well, but then I realized that I don't know my mother all that well, I think I need to do some things different. I'm glad your boys know you so well!
