Mother’s Day Fun

I don’t think moms really need an official day to feel “special,” but the sweetness that comes with this day sure is wonderful! 

I joined Seamus at school for the Mother’s Day breakfast, and talk about cuteness overload.  We had juice and pancakes and were presented with special gifts. 003

A pancake mustache!

All of those flowers in the flowerpot are his fingerprints!  The kids also had to draw a picture of their moms, and they were all hung on the wall for us to guess who was who.  I think the resemblance is striking!  He did give me some hair, it’s just not easy to see!

Grace made me this adorable pussywillow branch – out of marshmallows!  It is the cutest thing ever.  She keeps reminding me not to eat them – it must have suddenly clicked that no food is safe around me!

It was a wonderful Mother’s Day…and of course the greatest gift of all is feeling this loved!

I just love your art projects! Isn't so nice to get something you know the kiddos worked so hard on? So cute! I just love Seamus' pancake mustache. Something tells me there is going to be a lot of goofing around in Dutch Wonderland with all these boys!
You look fabulous my dear. See you in two weeks!
