Last year was my first mother's day. We had Shrade dedicated at church that weekend.
This year my husband got up early and made a breakfast of yummy quiche, fried potatoes and strawberry rhubarb crumble.
Then we went on a bike ride on the Iron Horse Trail which used to be a railroad track in the North Cascades (so it's very gradual- my kind of biking). It was a gorgeous day! Just so I didn't feel too much like I had to be a perfect mom...I forgot Shrade's water bottle for our ride and I also fell over on my bike when I stopped and I sliced my finger with a Swiss Army Knife trying to core an apple for my husband!
Despite these mishaps, it was a very special day for me. My husband bought me a digital picture frame that I get to pick all the pictures to put in it. Hmm, I wonder who will be featured!!! My saying of the day is "I should be a mother every day!" Well, I am. Thank you Jesus for allowing me the privilege.
Sounds like a great day (except for the owie - ouch!). Glad you all had a lovely Mother's Day! We spend the weekend together and it was lovely, too, despite the fact that I got a yucky stomach bug. Ick!
