The mother/daughter banquet at church this year was especially enjoyable because there was a local bluegrass band that was made up of youth from the area. They were fantastic and Evangeline was inspired.
Peggy was especially touched by a song about grandma's garden. It was something to do with her garden being grown with love. It was a metaphorical song about the garden being her children and grandchildren. She had tears rolling down her cheeks as the song was played. As I was taking this picture I saw Peggy tearing up again and she said, "there's grandma's garden". Proud grandma.
These three have such a special friendship.
Of course I was spoiled on Mother's Day with my favorite kinds of gifts.....the homemade kind. Jed was telling me for 2 days that he signed a card for me. He would say, "I made a special card just for you. I wrote my name, J-E-D. It says I love you." He was so proud. Kyle and the kids also got me some new planters. Such a lovely surprise! Kyle also went to get me a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit in the morning. I was feeling the love.
I got to spend time in the nursery with Jed during Sunday School on Mother's Day. I happened to have my camera and wanted to get a picture to remember him this small...playing in the church nursery.
We did our annual picnic at Lincoln Trail. It was such a beautiful, perfect day.
Peggy brought this bubble kit she bought last fall. It makes enormous bubbles. We had so much fun with it.
Mother's Day is my favorite next to Christmas. I'm so blessed with these sweet two that call me Mom.
