What makes Mother's Day so special

What a special day and weekend this was! I had an amazing weekend with Don and Juliette. Yesterday, My two best friends Amy and Jill had a girl's day at the beach without children. All of the husbands babysat. Last night all three couples went out. That was just great! This morning we went to church and heard a wonderful message about the love and role of mothers. It made me realize the importance of my job as a mother. Juliette today also had her first boat ride, and she LOVED it! Can you think of any better ways to spend your weekend? I cannot right now.

And to my special Mom who is out west right now on vacation - thanks for being who you are! You are the best Mom I could have asked for.
