Mom's Weekend


My weekend started off with these deliciousness... a delivery of
 Chocolate covered strawberries AND cherries from the two guys in my life.
  Saturday morning at the circus with my pumpkin and cousin Abbey.  Matthew's first time and he loved it!  He is still talking about it!
 We got to ride an elephant! It was a very quick ride, but still very fun to do.  I've always wanted to ride an elephant so now I can cross that off my bucket list.   

Our family picture on Mother's Day.  It was SO hard to get that little monkey to sit still!


He feel asleep on the way to church (holding the azaleas he picked from our front yard).

What a blessing it is to be a mom to this little boy.  I love being a  mom.  It's something that I've always wanted to be when I grew up.  And while my little boy is growing up (a little too fast), I don't want to miss one minute of his childhood.  He is my life.  I'm so happy that he calls me mamma!

 I love comparing pictures thru the years.  Seems like yesterday he was just so tiny (3 months old on my first mother's day).  Love him to pieces!

Aw, what an adorable family you have! Riding that elephant looks so cool, I want to do that! I have pictures of me doing that once as a kid, but I don't remember it.
