My first Mother's day was very special. I spend the morning teaching the newbies. James was dedicated at the start of the worship service which was great and then I went to my other babies to teach. We made painted hand prints for the other special mamas and enjoyed our Bible lesson for the day. After church we took Josh's mom out to lunch at River Burch Lodge. It was yummy and we even got to sit out on the patio and enjoy the nice weather. James must have been worn out because he slept from 10:30 until 2! He didn't even bother to wake up for mother's day pictures. After that we came home and lounged on the couch for awhile. I got myself ready to go back to work while Josh and baby J napped. Then we all climbed into bed, ordered a pizza and watched a movie. It was great and exactly what I wanted to do. Just spend the day with my boys and relax. I am so thankful for the motherly examples in my mother and mother-in-law. They offer such sage advice and love that I couldn't help but be a good mother to my own son. Thank you mom and Sandy for being wonderful examples!
Thank you to my wonderful husband for making motherhood a reality for me and thank you to my sweet baby J for making me a mommy. It is the best thing I have ever done.
Gigi looks like she is lecturing him (perhaps telling him he can't get any bigger)

Finally a mommy and I love every bit of it!
