We had a great Mother’s Day on Sunday. Nate made me some yummy pancakes for breakfast (pancakes aren’t his favorite so we never make them normally) and didn’t have his usual before-church meetings. I got to take a good nap, then we went up to Nate’s parents’ house for dinner. We were glad that we were able to celebrate with Nate’s mom and enjoyed spending time with his family (and Nate was glad he didn’t have to make dinner for me, just part of dessert :)
Mother’s Day came at a good time for me when I’ve been feeling a little overwhelmed by motherhood – feeling like I’m just barely keeping up with the essentials. It was a good reminder of the importance of what I’m doing and the positive influence I can have.
I decided to attempt to take a picture with Bennett and Ryan – I figured our church clothes wouldn’t last until Nate got home so we set up the tripod and remote. It took some trial and error, but we did manage to get one decent one.
I’m grateful to be a mom, and grateful for my wonderful mom and mother-in-law and their examples of motherhood! Happy Mother’s Day!
