I woke up to a wonderful day. I am so totally blessed with the family I have. I know how lucky I am. I slept in and woke up to fresh flowers, Tim Horton's coffee, fruit and freshly made breakfast! The kids showered me with handmade gifts from school and they bought me the MOST beautiful bouquet of green and pink flowers. We spent the day just hanging around the house (we painted some of our pool fence & did some gardening) and then took the kids out for supper in Madoc where we enjoyed fried chicken and wedge fries and ice cream. Then we headed to the Madoc skateboard park so the kids could ride their bikes for a while. Tonight it is Survivor and just chilling with a tasty drink in hand.
Motherhood is the best thing that I've ever experienced. It is a gift and today as my kids celebrated ME I couldn't stop thanking my lucky stars for all I have.

My flowers and homemade gifties from the kids =
Chloe made me this gift at school. It is interesting, a surgical glove from the looks of it - with ribbon glued to it... perfect for gardening ;)
Keaton brought home this little flower, he forgot to water it though from Friday til' today. Hee...
Me and the kids.

To my mother, thank you. You know how much I love you... how much I appreciate all you are and all that you do for me, Shaune and our children. You are my best friend and the person I always turn to when I need a shoulder or a laugh or just to talk. I am truly the luckiest daughter around. Thank you Mom. Thank you!
