Mother's Day Treasures

I know it isn't much,
but I hope you feel my love for you.
Thank you for everything you do, including
teaching me that life's not about waiting for the storm to pass,
it's about learning to dance in the rain. Love, Hunter

Hand flowers from Miller and Sawyer!

"Guessing your favorite flower

Shouldn't be all that hard.
I'll bet they're green and yellow
And grow all over the yard.
I only pick the special ones
Because they're just for you.
They're my way of saying thanks
For everything you do!" Love, Sawyer

Cooper's card to me, with verse:

What!?!
I'll attribute that thought to third grade boyhood.

My husband was in Columbus yesterday.
Mr. Brown Sign has traveled there before
and loves Schmidt's Sausage House
because of their GIANT cream puffs.

Vanilla, banana cream, and the BuckEye (peanut butter cream).

Y.U.M.!
It's always about the food.

Wonderful tributes from your sons, and those cream puffs look awesome! Bet they tasted as awesome as well. Glad you had a nice Mother's Day.

AMEN Sista'! Excuse me while I drool at the cream puffs. Which one was your favorite? Cute poems. The school one has me laughing.

Happy Mother's Day to a well deserved Mother. I'm glad the boys made it special for you. Can I borrow the "dancin in the rain" phrase? Great perspective.

So fun! And yes - it is about the food. Roger cooked tacos -- a meal that my parents cooked growing up. It was just perfect. I kept saying after each bite of taco shell, meat, guacamole, sour cream and tomatoes... I am so happy.

Plus, I re-read your brother Aaron's amazing Mother's Day talk from last year.....
