Mother's Day 2016

I am so thankful that these 4 kiddos call me mommy.

Mother's Day morning Lily came to our bedroom & READ me the card that she made all by herself.  

I love it and I will cherish it forever. 

"You are filled with joy.

You are patient.

You are love.

You are playful.

You are pretty."

It is also amazing that the many things that I think I am severely lacking in, or completely failing at, are the things that she said she loves about me. That is all God's grace!

Jake & the girls brought home bagels, from Panera, for breakfast. Thanks leftover gift card! I also enjoy a large STACK of cards and artwork made by the kids.

After church, we enjoyed a family lunch at Sweet & Savory. We headed home for naps and after naps hit the beach.  It was a great family day.

Being a mom is such a gift.
