Happy Mom Party Day

"Happy Mom Party Day"

That's what Ally called Mother's Day. It's so funny that she calls me mom. Never mommy, mother, or mama. Just Mom. Jonathan is always Daddy. So it's Mom and Daddy. Anyways, back to me and my Happy Mom Party day.

Jonathan did great this year. FINALLY. This is my third mother's day and let's just say the last two where nothing to call home about. I dropped obvious hints that he needed to make it a big deal and I'm not even ashamed- I deserve it. I earned a day of gratitude and once I explained that it doesn't matter that I'm not HIS mother- I was the mother of HIS child and I almost died to get her here, so he OWES me this. So from now on all future Mother's Days must rock. Which shouldn't be hard all it takes it words to make me happy. And this year he delivered.

He took Ally for a walk and they picked these flowers for me. They were pretty much dead, but once I put them in water, they perked right up (a few hours later) and I got this great picture.

And yes... that is a clean ( guy clean anyway) kitchen these flowers are sitting in. Nice job. Oh and breakfast and dinner were cooked in this kitchen by Ally and her Daddy. Very nice indeed....

This is Ally telling me "happy mom party day" and singing an original Ally made it up song. No clue what she said. But there were a lot of mom and party so I'm assuming it was about me.

Daddy even got her dressed that morning for church. He did!- Tights and all- go Daddy. I did have to do the hair. He said her curls weren't going in the right direction, so I helped out.

Ally even bought me this balloon- with her own money. She was very proud of herself and I let her play with it. See- awesome mom.

Jonathan also taught my (our) primary class and I went to Relief Society. They also both took naps after church so I got my very own quiet time. A great day indeed.
