MMM: My First Mother's Day

Yesterday was my very first Mother's Day! My poor little boy was not feeling well over the weekend. He had a fever, a little cough, and wanted to be held (which wasn't so bad). But it was not fun to see him sick. It makes me so sad because he doesn't understand what's going on in his little body. Fortunately he has started to feel better, so I am very thankful for that, especially with our trip this week!

Lovebug made me breakfast and I received cards from both him and Zeke (plus, I received 4 Mother's Day cards in the mail from my family!). They were very sweet cards.  My lovely Mother's Day gift was Pioneer Woman's new cookbook, Food from my Frontier. I am excited to start trying the new recipes! I have looked through it several times already and there are several recipes I'm excited about... Cherry Limeade, Chocolate Coffee Cake, and her Cold Brewed Coffee to name a few. Where do I begin?

I also got one of the half price frappuccinos from Starbucks, so I felt quite special all day. With the addition of the Mother's Day special treatment, I believe May might have surpassed October as my favorite month of the year! And there's so much more to look forward to: our trip this week, my cousin's wedding, visiting New York state, my bro-in-law's wedding, my birthday, and Memorial Day weekend!

To life... full of anticipation and celebration!
