This weekend we celebrated our moms, Billy and I have wonderful mothers. Today, we celebrated my first Mother's Day. I'm ever so grateful for the blessing God gave us in our sweet Lilly Rose. Last Mother's Day just one year ago we shared the news with our parents that we were expecting. Today, I was able to hold and love on that baby girl. I would travel that difficult road again if I knew it would lead me to the honor of mothering my Lilly.
Saturday evening after dinner out...my choice (Cracker Barrel. I'm SO fancy!), we headed to GA to spend a little time with each of our mamma's. I'm so appreciative of my mom and thankful for who she is. Lilly Rose was spoiled with sugar from BOTH grandparents in one day.
This morning I woke up to my Mother's Day gifts, cards from my favorite people (even one from Oliver!) and lots of hugs. Billy asked me the night before what I wanted to do today, I said, "relax". So, after church we picked up lunch and did just that...relaxed! Lilly is still napping, what a great gift! ;) I'm looking forward to planting my beautiful flowers sometime this week.
Ahhhh, her little personality is really starting to shine through with all those sweet little faces and smiles!! It just gets more and more fun doesn't it? (and easier which adds to the fun!) Happy first mother's day to you, Brooke!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Katie! It does get more fun! Each day she's showing us more of her little personality. :)
