Happy Mother's Day!


I would like to wish all of the wonderful women I know a belated but very Happy Mother's Day.

I had such a wonderful day yesterday. Chris woke up at the same time I did and made me breakfast (he's not much of an early riser, and despite his many wonderful domestic skills, he doesn't usually prepare meals at our house). After I nursed the baby, I handed him to Chris and got to enjoy ample time to shower and get myself ready for church. By that time, Chris and the girls prepared me a scrumptious plate of gluten free/dairy free blueberry pancakes, with a beautiful strawberry flower garnish. They even bought a spray can of non-dairy whipped topping to make the plate look especially marvelous. How thoughtful!

After church, Chris prepared clam linguine, fruit salad, and brownie sundaes for dessert (here we did eat dairy). We then went over to Grandma Kramer's house to celebrate with her. During our visit Syd, Gustavo, and baby Ella also came over. It's always so fun to celebrate and relax with each other.
