This was taken on Mother's Day weekend before going out for an "interesting" dinner w/ the boys and Uncle Kevin. Let's just say....sugar packs were thrown into my glass of wine (Carter), loudiness and lack of table manners was everywhere (Carter) and a massive poop explosion (Gavin) occured in the ladies bathroom at J.Alexander's. And lucky me, I got to clean it up all by myself. Kevin thought I fell in the toliet because I was gone so long!
None the less, it was an interesting Mother's Day. In all due credit, Darrell did 'try' to let me sleep in. However, we all know that in a very small two bedroom condo and two early birds that did not happen. Darrell did get a little creative and the boys got me a "day" to myself which included a few gift cards and some very appropriate poems.
I am so grateful for all my gifts and beyond grateful that God has blessed me with two healthy and gorgeous little boys. This Mother's Day was extra special because it was my first year to celebrate with baby Gavin. Love you boys (daddy too) so VERY MUCH!!!
So...here go the poems.
"In the Morning".......(by Gavin)
Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night,
I will cry for my mommy to hold me tight,
For that I am thankful and wanted to say,
Enjoy my gift one morning to help start your day. (included was a Bookstore/Coffee gift card)
"In the Afternoon"..... (by Carter)
I will kick, scream, bite and throw a fit;
I will refuse to go to time out, wind down, and sit.
You put up with my antics, and still love me for me.
Enjoy my gift one afternoon and relax peacefully. (included a gift card to get a massage)
"In the Evening"......(by Darrell)
You amaze me with your patience and love towards our boys.
Your job is never ending, doing laundry and picking up toys.
You are a great mother and deserve the very best
Enjoy my gift one evening, and give cooking a rest! (a gift card to a nice Italian restaurant)
Love the poems Darrell! Thank you for always finding ways to make me smile :)
