Grateful

So this last weekend was Mothers Day and then my Birthday was two days after that! I had a great weekend and birthday!! It made me think about how grateful I am to have such a wonderful husband, beautiful kids and great friends!!! I spent Mothers Day going to church, and then hanging out with great friends. Andy made me my favorite dessert that he makes from scratch......strawberry shortcake!!! It was good!!

My birthday was a great day as well. I got lots of phone calls and notes on FB which of course made me feel loved. That is always a good feeling!! Andy had the day off so that was nice. He took me to dinner at my favorite resturant, Old Pueblo Cafe!!! I love mexican food! Chloe picked out a cake for me which had to have some very specific things! It was a chocolate cake, with white frosting, sprinkles and a balloon!!!! It was a very special cake and it didn't matter what it was or what it tasted like because she picked it out special for me! My friend came over after kids were in bed and we watched a great chick flick, Bride Wars!!! Then we just talked uninterrupted (usually interrupted by kids) til 12:30am.

Yes, I am grateful!! Even though there are bad days, my children test their boundaries and my patients, Andy is in school, he doesn't have a job yet and my sister is not back in the states yet, I can be grateful for the good things in life, such as my husband, children, family and my friends. God blessed me with these people in my life and they make it better!!!!
So remember Love much, forgive always and live like you were dying!
