Week in Review

Sort of an odd week, what with chickens & biscuits & buttons & all.

It ended with a lovely holiday called "Mother's Day", which, around my house, is just like any other day. Basically. No breakfast in bed for me: I made breakfast for the WhiMSy clan. After church I even took the family out to lunch. No feet up on the couch or relaxing for me: I swept the floors & mopped the floors & continued cycling the loads of laundry.

Zoey did make me a card in Kindergarten though. It spoke of love & adoration & ended with this sentence: Can you take me to the park?

Oh, I was taken out to dinner in the evening--as a special treat from my parents, along with 13 other family members.

My wee children try hard to make this a special day for their mom. They need a little help though & Mr. WhiMSy love can be a bit clueless about these sorts of things. Not to put him down or belittle him at all, but he just fits in "that" category & I know I'm not singing a solo here.

So, for those moms that dearly desire to be pampered & indulged on what is supposedly their special day & treated like the queen they KNOW they are, I hail your role as "mother" & send you this belated message:

Happy Mother's Day!

(You can get your revenge on Father's Day.)

Happy Mother's Day!

This is why I can celebrate today.

Happy Mother's Day!

Last Minute Mom's Day Gift

Paint a glass vase!

I did this project with my Daisies group at church last night. The girls had so much fun!

The paint is a special acrylic paint specifically for glass & ceramics. Not that I do much glass painting, but the paint I picked up last year at Joanne's (when I made those Happy Birthday Plates ) seems to work WONDERFULLY! ! After you've painted your piece & it has dried, just stick it in a cool oven, turn the oven to 350 degrees & set the timer for 30 minutes. That's it! The girls had a completed Mother's Day gift by the end of class.

Happy Mommies Day!

I know I'm a little late, but I saw this cute goose family down at the river this morning celebrating Mother's Day & had to wish you all a HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY too!!

MOTHER'S DAY GREETINGS!!!

Mother's Day is an especially special day for me. Not only because I think it is so cool to be celebrated as a mom, but because I was adopted. Every year as this day approaches I feel supremely blessed to have my mother. I feel fortunate to have grown up with a woman that loves God, loves her family, & did the best she knew how to raise a family that does the same.
I try to imagine what life would be like without my mom, growing up somewhere else, someplace different. I can't. And every year I struggle with coming up with the most beautiful, perfect words of admiration & respect for my mom--& I can't.
Mom, never will I find the likes of you in another...
I love you. Always have. Always will.
