My Cute Kids! Being a Mom is the most wonderful, most difficult job anyone can have. I am so grateful that God has given me these 2 Miracle children to worry about, play with, and teach. They each bless my life in different ways.

Starboy made this picture holder at scouts for my Mother's Day Gift. He also gave me a couple beautiful cards that he made at school and church. He loves art.


I bought myself these two rose bushes to plant in my front yard. They are called Orchard's Pride roses and are a hybrid tea rose that was started in 2006. I thought they were beautiful. I just hope the place I want to plant them will get enough sun so they will grow.

Coach gave me this gorgeous knife set for Mother's Day. We have used my parents Cutco Knives for years, but now that we are moving to our new home I had told him I needed a set of my own. He had it all wrapped and had Princess help give it to me. I was very very happy.

We spent the weekend at the new house painting, and getting ready for the carpet in the basement. Things are coming together.




The front and back lawn is still quite dead, but hopefully with some more time it will start to revive. I have dug out all the old weeds from the flower beds and planted a few perennials and now my rose bushes will be plated. In time hopefully it will look beautiful.

I taught sharing time for Mother's Day. We had the children make pictograph cards. Drawing in pictures for some of the words to the song "I Often Go Walking" I got to share me example card with my Mom over Skype and sing to her, which is always a treat. I can't wait for them to be home from Hong Kong. The last year has gone by so fast.

I hope all of you had as wonderful of a Mother's Day as I did.

People have told me they are tired of seeing my April Fools Day salad and to PLEASE update my blog. It has been such a busy couple of months. The weeks just fly by. Life is really great for the most part, and I had a wonderful Mother's Day, so I thought I would share it with all of you.
