So another Mother's Day came and went, and for good or for bad, here were my thoughts (pretty much in order):
* I love being a mom.
* I'm so lucky to have such great kids.
* That was so nice of The Mr. to arrange for the kids to come and
make brunch for all of us.
* Brunch was actually pretty tasty.
* Wow! The Mother's Day gifts were pretty cool.
* No more tissue paper and pipe cleaner flowers. The kids have
definitely grown up.
* I love my mom.
* I miss my mom.
* My mom wasn't perfect, but she was the best mom I could ask
for.
* I wish I could be a better mom.
* Are the church speakers telling the truth? Are their moms really
that perfect?
* I really need to be a better mom.
* I sure hope the Mother's Day gift from the church is chocolate.
My flowers always die.
* Okay, that was rude. I shouldn't even expect a gift from the
church.
* But I sure hope it's chocolate!
* I really need to be a better mom.
* I really need to stop obsessing about chocolate.
* Yes!!! A three-pack of Lindts by Lindor. My favorite.
* I suppose it would be polite to offer one to The. Mr.
* I hope this is one of his "healthy-eating" days and he turns me
down.
* Bummer. He wants one.
* Okay, I need to be a better mother AND a better wife.
All in all a really great day. And this card from my animal-loving granddaughter was the perfect ending. (I'm pretty sure it even beat out the chocolate.)

Haha! The cutest card! And my thoughts went along the same lines...especially the chocolate part...ha.
So my children eyed up the chocolates on their way to primary. An hour later I found myself in the mother's room and somehow ate all 3 chocolates on my own.....pure bliss!
You are an amazing Mom - totally worthy of Lindt chocolates!
I was so glad when cory asked me if they should do flowers or chocolate for the gift at church- I said chocolate all the way- the flowers hardly make it out of church intact, but the chocolate I can keep on my hips with me forever! ha!
