I thought, this Sunday being mother’s day, I would feature a few other great mothers. (These are in no particular order)
First: It is the text message we all want to get, and laugh at. It is the main reason we bother to leave our husbands with the kids. Read Holly’s story about leaving her husband for the weekend, and him finding out that “Your life is harder”. It cracked me up.
Second: My friend Tracy, whom I love and adore, has a special tribute to moms. She asked several of the moms in her life to write a special message to all the mom readers out there. Mom, stepmom, mom-in-law, to Spiritual mom, they all have special messages to encourage other mothers today.
So check out “A Message From My Moms”
Third: Rookie Moms everyday has great ideas to keep moms enjoying life no matter what. “Throw an inside-outside party” suggests that we begin to do things again we could not do while pregnant. Ladies, just using my downy is something I enjoy being able to do that I could not do when I was pregnant. (Oh the gag reflexes when I am pregnant)
Check out these links, you will enjoy yourself. Then answer this question: What is your ideal Mother’s Day? Really.
Well….my ideal Mother’s Day will turn into a week come July 28 when I will fly away to the beach by myself to be with friends. I NEED A BREAK!!!! I hope my wonderful husband feels just like Tracy’s did. All good husbands need to feel that way at least once in life. But since you are asking us to be a little more reality driven…for today. A morning without repeated reminders to get dressed for me and my children.:) Where we all
have a wonderful brunch prepared by my husband, the fabulous cook. My mom would come too. Because she just loves David’s queich (sp?). Time to visit and enjoy my family and not feel the pressure of do, do, do. Then a nice glass of “blue wine” and a massage to finish off the day.
My ideal mother’s day….hmmm….just spending time with my family! I have thought long and hard about this (my husband is nagging me, “what can I get you, what can I do?”) but truthfully I just want to spend the day in thanksgiving to God for my VERY FIRST mother’s day. I want to count my blessings…I want to give God praise…I want to enjoy where I am at in life at this very time…I want to dream and believe God for the impossible!
Happy Mother’s Day to all mom’s and future mom’s! May the blessings of God chase you and overtake you this day!
Happy Belated Mothers Day! I am so proud of what an accomplished Mom you are!
