Happy Mother's Day to Me


Memorable Mother's Day Moments:
1.  Seeing Will standing with all the Primary kids as they sang a Mother's Day song in church.
2. Validation for all my teeth brushing - we visited the dentist and our non-smoking, non tea or coffee drinking teeth are the best our new dentist has seen in Dubai! 
3. Taking Will to his first birthday party for a little girl, Julianna, from church.  Singing, dancing, balloons, cake - and a puking party goer (not Finley! - or Will).
4. Stopping to buy a birthday present on our way to the party, and Will stealing a 5 pack of Hot Wheels while we were waiting in line.


And yes, that is Will sticking his fork into the cake during Happy Birthday.  He wandered up a couple of times during the other activities and I was really afraid he would just stick his hand in and grab a chunk, but he waited patiently - mostly...


5. A couple of instances of Will actually playing nicely- I checked on him while we were making dinner one night and he had piled all her toys on her lap and was reading her a story.

6. Snuggling with two kids.  Worth the wait.
