Mother's Day

This is my first Mother's Day where I have gotten a real homemade gift made at school from my daughter. It was a cookie flower with two gum drops to secure it to the stick.

Avant Garde Gal: MOMMY! Happy Mother's Day! I made you a flower!

QS: WOW! Thank you sweetie. I love it.

AGG: But Mommy, I'm going to eat when we get home.

QS: I thought you said it was for me.

AGG: Yes, but I don't want you to get big and fat. So I'll eat it.

Here is her song she learned from school.
Happy Mother's Day!

...yes, she and her sister split the flower that evening... because that's part of being a Mommy too. (ok, fine, honestly... gumdrops and a store-bought cookie - not my style, had they really wanted me to eat it - I would have done it, luckily that was not the case this Mother's Day - it's the thought that counts...and I was tickled.)
