[mother's day highlights]

  • Being told to sleep in while my love takes care of the kids and makes breakfast.
  • Not really sleeping. Lying in bed awake listening... thinking how blessed I am.
  • Sweet simple surprises being brought to me from my daughter one after another. [card, homemade necklace, bright orange flowers, pedicure gift certificate with love note (from him)]
  • Not having to clean up dishes after breakfast. He's so good to me.
  • Cuddles from my baby girl.
  • A Mother's Day skype chat with mom and dad Harward in Paris, France. Good to see their smiling faces. They have that "missionary glow." Miss and Love them. 
  • Watching Brylie sing with the primary during sacrament meeting.
  • Not having to teach Sunbeams. The guys gave us ladies a break.
  • Brylie asking "when is kids day?" I told her... everyday is kids day.
  • BBQ at moms house. Enjoying family. Feeling grateful for my sweet Mother.
  • And finally the sweet bliss of a peaceful sleeping house.
My only regret was not taking a picture of me and my girls. But it was a very Happy Mother's Day nonetheless. I am very thankful to have the privilege of being a mom. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
