Mother's Day - Realistic Expectations

I've learned to just look forward to a nice card and homemade gifts on Mother's Day - not a complete break from my mom gig. Megan told me that Erick says, it's not "Don't be a Mother's Day" - so true!

So, despite the craziness of getting ready for church and sitting alone with the kids at church (the new norm), it was a pretty good Mother's Day. Sunday is just a stressful day at our house for me anyway.

We had a nice dinner at Jonelle and Ken's house - the guys did the cooking and clean up and we just got to hang out and enjoy the good food. We had a lovely taco bar - my favorite!

Missing the heart necklace I gave to Betty, but I wanted to remember the sentiment
