Feels like home to me..

My feeble attempt to get a pic of Alex after being at church all morning.

I got some of that much needed "me" time, that I was talking about,today! I told Jared I think Mother's Day should be monthly and he wasn't that into it. I don't know why??? He woke up while I lounged a bit. He fed and changed both boys while I gave myself a manicure, showered, make-up'd and dressed. Thankfully I have a husband that is helpful all year round but I still thoroughly enjoyed playing the Mother's Day card today. The boys even gave me the gift of a long nap. Jared also complimented this by giving me beautiful flowers, both to plant and put in a vase and cooking dinner. As I say often I am a blessed woman.

Baby dedication went wonderfully and I felt unbelievably overwhelmed to be able to be in church today. It was like pulling on an old, comfy sweatshirt. It is where I feel at home. It is my constant. It is where I can be me and worship the God who loves me for being who I am. My pastor had an amazing message about Mother's. It was so encouraging and it felt like a stamp of approval on all that we do on a day to day basis. It was like a huge pat on the back which is what mother's day should be about I guess. A confirmation that you are in fact appreciated. I look at all of the Moms around me and feel so thankful that they are in my life. I believe that they have all helped shape me into the Mother I am today. Thanks ladies, you know who you are.
