Well as most of you know this was my 1st Mother's Day and it was, well interesting to say the least! I think we all know that you imagine this perfect wonderfully spectacular day and with a baby, that is such a fantasy because nothing EVER turns out as planned!
We headed to LA (lower Alabama) about 8pm Friday night thinking that leaving at this time would be so smart because John could work as late as he needed and we could get Jack ready for bed and he would sleep the whole way! Smart plan that worked well until we got to my Gran's house and baby boy was wide awake, so after much bouncing, rocking, begging, bottles, and paci's the child finally went to sleep at 2AM and was again wide eyed at 4am and 5am and 6am! And that sleeping pattern was repeated again on Saturday night! Despite the tiredness we had a great time.
The guys golfed, girls shopped, we all ate, and had lots of fun watching Jack and his new tricks. (He is trying so hard to crawl)
Mother's Day was spent at church, family lunch, and the car. It was a emotional day for me and reminded me of the great gift I have been given and what I am expected to be for my child. I am so thankful for my life and my family. We are truly blessed in more ways than I could have ever imagined.
I hope you all had the best Mother's Day possible!
