My Mother's Day

This is what my Mother's Day consisted of:

Flowers sent by my darling, fabulous,
amazing and thoughtful husband

who has no access to phone, internet

or any outside sources right now.

With a note that made me cry tears of love.

This little fella woke up at 1 am with a fever of 105.3.

And nothing I did would break it.

I prayed longer and harder than I ever have

and Lord came through bringing the fever to 101.9 -

finally he was able to sleep.

I called my mom and she helped me through it all.

My little Caleb was just getting over being sick

- still gave me a smile whenever I asked.

Hugs were always close behind.

Overall I think I had the most down to earth and true Mother's Day. I got to be exactly what a mother is - a nurturer. I got to call upon my mother. When it all got impossible, I was able to call upon the creator of mothers for help and guidance. And the man I love supported me without even knowing I would need it more than ever on this day.

WOW!

I love being a MOM!

I'm Ffree...

Caleb is officially three. He has loved every minute of his age advancement. The unfortunate part about his birthday is that he woke up with a fever of 103.5. Never fear, it came down and he is fine. I think it was for me to remember that he is still a little guy even if he is three.

When I mentioned a cape,
he let me know with no doubt that he wanted a
Batman Cape.

Candy pancakes for breakfast.

My little chef wanted to help make his cake,
and now I think I know why.

He passed out on the couch after refusing a nap.

He wanted a cupcake with no frosting...until he saw Dax's frosting.
What my three year old wants, he gets...
at least when it comes to frosting on his cupcake.

Happy Birthday Caleb!

Strawberry Pickin'

North Carolina is an amazing place to live during berry seasons! There are farms all over the place that will let you come and pick your berries for an amazing price. The experience is fun and delicious.

Most of the farms will let your kids feast while you pick.

It was definitely a day of messy faces.

A group of gals went with their kids-

so the kids wrecked havock while the women worked.

All in all, it was a GREAT day!
