What’s Mothers day without breakfast in bed? Mine even came with a menu, all be it limited. And yes they made it themselves and yes it was edible. Glenn even held Sabrina so I could eat without a baby jumping on my head a rare treat in this house.
I see mothers day as a multi layered celebration. First you get jumped out of your sleep by 4 excited to bursting little people who are desperate to show you all their tokens of appreciation.
Then after church there is an opportunity over lunch to reflect on how special your own Mum is. How much more like a friend she has become as time has altered our rolls and yet how much I still value her opinions. Also how beautiful it is to see her running around the playground after my tearaway lot.
And Lastly there is a chance to take a deep breath in and thank God from every inch of my soul for these precious little ones.
Mothers day is not just a day for Mothers to be spoilt, it is It is the perfect opportunity to thank God for the privilege. Happy Mothers Day.
Ah that menu is so precious! You couldn’t make that up, complete with the spelling if you tried 🙂 You’re right too about it being a day to be thankful for your kids, its a pretty cool ride getting to be a mum.
So true! Motherhood is certainly a wonderful privilege. Happy belated mother’s day to you!
