Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day! I woke up to flowers, cake, breakfast, and Starbucks! I feel very loved and so happy to be a mother to the most amazing boys.

I also want to say Happy Mothers Day to my mom! My Mom really is the best mother in the world. Growing up with 2 older brothers allowed me to have my mom all to myself. In fact, I never missed not having a sister. My mom is incredibly giving, smart, funny, and tough. So, in honor of Mothers day I thought I'd list my 5 favorite mom stories:

1. When we went shopping in NYC. I think we woke up at about 7am and literally shopped ALL day. I actually collapsed in Bloomingdales makeup department b/c I was sooo tired. My mom has never let me live that one down. She remains the champion of shopping!

2. When we went to Paolos restaurant in Georgetown. I think we ended up splitting 2 bottles of wine and almost had to call my Dad to drive us home. Oh, and how can I forget when I was leaving I somehow managed to take the table cloth with me causing all the glasses to fall down - oops!

3. When we were shopping in Hecks bra department and she somehow got a piece of underwear stuck to her purse. I was laughing so hard that I could barley tell her why.

4. Passion of the Christ story. This will live on in history!!

5. When she watched Luke and Ryan for 5 days while Scott and I were in st. Thomas. We waked in the door to see her bags packed and the car running! I remember telling Luke to give her a kiss (usually you need to drag her out) but she kept saying "it's fine he doesn't have to". There were skid marks on our drive way as she raced out :)

I love you Mom! You are the best mother and I can only hope to be as good to my guys as you are to us. I can always count on you to cry when I need you to or to laugh. You are so appreciated and loved by all of us.

Happy Mothers Day!

Woke up this morning to find that Scott had a private party by himself due to the news of Osama Bin Laden's death. It made me smile and feel so proud of Scott and his service to our country. Luke and Ryan have such an amazing role model to always look up to. He is a true hero in my eyes :)

Love you pickle.
