May Days

I love the month of May! So many happy events for our family. Today we celebrated Mother's Day. I was awoken early by some excited children who couldn't wait to give me my presents that they had made and bought for me. They were so excited that they woke me up at 7am to give them to me. I had had a late night the night before at Lisas reception and couldn't even open my eyes to see what the kids had given me. I love the fact that they made things for me and put effort into what they had written. It makes being a mum all worthwhile and instead of usually feeling like a failure as a mother, today I felt loved and felt like I was doing something right:) I love my kids so much and love being a mum to them. I also love being able to honour and do something for my mum today and am looking forward to eating the roast turkey that I am making for her tonight. In our family one of the ways we show our love is by cooking with each other and cooking for each other. I am hoping to pass that down onto my children. The girls enjoy cooking and helping in the kitchen. Alyssa wants to go on Junior masterchef. We shall see if that happens! Happy Mother's Day!
