The Day We Celebrate the Most Important Person in our Lives…

…Mother’s Day.

I got to thinking about it and decided Mom is one of the most important people ever.  She supports, feeds, cares, laughs, comforts, gives advice, provides a free taxi service, does the laundry, does a million things I don’t know about, studies with me, shops with me, talks to me, loves me.

Thank you mom. :)

Isn’t she lovely?  (I know she wouldn’t want me to write that here…but…oh well.)

On Sunday, Jeff, Desiree and the kids came over and we celebrated our mother over a delicious meal (Jeff brought the ham…yum).

We enjoyed playing in the great outdoors and spending time with Mattie.

Brayden got a kick out of chopping down our large crop of bamboo.

Look at her little cheeks…and pink fingernails.

We went on a walk…

…and relaxed with Mattie. (Brayden’s not in these because most of this time he was chopping down bamboo.)

I agree Megan, Mothers will always have a very special place in the family.. because they are the pillars that hold it together=) Looks like you had as much fun celebrating your mother as we did ours. I couldn't help but notice those delicious looking strawberries on the plate! Wow, that is something that I REALLY miss!

Megan, you have an awesome mom! I think your taste in mothers is exceptional! She's a blessing from heaven to me, too, and to many others. God is good to you and me to give us a mum and wife like Dixie.
