Today was an all around wonderful day! It was the first Mother's day that I didn't want to hide in the closet and cry. I woke up to lots of cards telling me I am loved by my husband, daughter and dogs, in addition to other cards from family and friends to encourage me. I then opened some sweet gifts from John and Lucy. I got a swarovski crystal necklace, a cd and a picture frame and tons of text's and voicemails!
At church I was touched by a special message in the book of Exodus. To make it short and sweet it was about Jacobed and how she put a hedge of protection over Moses before sending him down the river. My take was that It is my responsibility to teach, provide, love and protect Lucy for the World and it's ways. I prayed for her soul and hope to be a Jacobed mama!
During lunch, John and I allowed Lucy to enjoy her own cup of tea in a big girl cup at the Chinese restaurant. It was our first time going since our trip to China. Lucy sipped 4 cups of tea and ate a fortune cookie, pretty healthy huh.
The rest of the day we just chilled out. Fed the fish, checked the strawberry patch, chased the cats and took some photo's! Lots of tickling, laughs and a wonderful memory I will cherish in my heart forever!
