Happy Mother's Day

Today was my first Mother's Day, which is really hard to believe! Yesterday I got to start celebrating with Austin giving me my present from Wyatt which was "Dan in Real Life". An excellent movie if you haven't seen it.
Austin had to work from seven to two today so Wyatt and I just lounged around this morning and I got to sleep in a bit. At three I met two of my pals from small group, Ali and Emily, at this little tea joint called The Tea Box. It was so relaxing a fun to just get to chat and being solo for a short time without our little sweeties demanding every other second. I got a iced peace white tea and a peanut butter and apple sandwich with some nice chips. De-licious!
After the tea and chat we went walking a few blocks to check out all the closed shops...it was getting late so most people were closing.
I called Austin to see what we were doing for church and how little love was doing. Austin was super exhausted and Wyatt just fell asleep so he told me to just go ahead a go while he stayed home. So off to church I went for the prayer gathering. It went really well and I got to meet some newbies in the church and prayer is just awesome to do together.

In closing: I have to admit that my first time of celebrating this holiday with myself included was really great. Being a mother is a mission in itself and has it good times and hard (from the seven weeks I've experienced). I am looking forward to Father's Day so Austin can relax and feel appreciated!
