Mother's Day 2010

I had a great Mother's Day Weekend despite having the flu! Yep, the flu! I won't go into the fun details of the flu but will say even with not feeling good, I had a great Mother's Day. Cullen wrote me a loving and caring note on this very blog (thanks babe), he got me a cute necklace with Bentley's name on it, and I got cards from many! We saw Grandpa Jim and Grandma Suzi (L's parents) on Saturday, they were in town for graduation. We had a wonderful visit, they held and loved Bentley, they brought me a beautiful plant and they delivered a nice card with a lovely note from L. And despite not feeling great, I got to nap with my little boy and had a good day. I got a very heart warming text from L on Sunday--"Happy Mother's Day! To the best mom I know." The courage, the love....I just can't explain how she makes me feel! She makes me feel so special...she picked us to raise her son and yet she continues to thank us and send us kind notes. God's plan is beautiful and we are all learning grace and love as we raise Bentley together.

Thank you all for the warm wishes and nice notes on my first Mother's Day! I can't explain how wonderful it is to be a mom to the cutest little boy I know :)
