Me and my girls (no that is not Ansley's real hair.)
My special hat.
Yesterday, Ansley and her daddy went shopping at the mall to pick out my gift. First, she brought me home a beautiful basket of flowers in which she said, "Mommy, I am going to go put it on your table by your bed so you can seem them first thing in the morning when you wake up. "--so sweet!
This morning, the girls gave me a very pretty bracelet and a special hat. Ansley picked them both out herself and although I laughed hysterically about the hat, I love it because it came from her. (You can see part of it in the picture above.)
We also went out for a yummy lunch at Buca de Beppo. For all of you that live out of town, this is a yummy Italian restaurant that serves family size portions. I was a little nervous taking the girls since they can get a little out of hand at times, but they were amazing! The server brought them pizza dough to play with and this occupied them the whole time. I was so proud of them for being such big girls at lunch today. By the way, Chris was making me feel bad about not wearing the hat. So I did. . . in the car to and from the restaurant.Ansley smiled and said I looked like a cowgirl. Blossom hat, golf hat , beach hat, cowgirl hat. . .. . whatever. . .it came from her and that is all that matters.
Kylie and I on the otherhand spent time together yesterday afternoon for a while, while Daddy and Sissy went shopping. That was her portion of her Mother's Day gift to me and I couldn't have asked for anything better from her. We went and petted the puppies at a pet adoption in front of Petco. She loved giving them treats! Then we went to Brain Freeze for some frozen yogurt .She was so funny and very specific about the toppings she wanted. You can tell she has been there a time of two-haha! Her $1.95 yogurt was certainly enjoyed! Next, off to Kohls we went to buy some new pillows for the sofa. However, I do need to mention, she is quite the shopper. She constantly browsed and threw things into the cart. She even insisted on pushing it around those narrow isles. She came to a corner and tried to turn it but ran it into the shelf and said, "Crap!" I cracked up!! It sounded more like "cwap" but it was too funny. I had never heard her say that before and it was hysterical. I love spending time with her. She is such a good, happy, little girl and always enjoys every minute we are together. Its not often she gets one-on-one time with just mommy. I need to start making it a priority to do it with her more often.
Finally, I wouldn't be the person I am today if it weren't for my own mom. She always worked hard, loved lots, and sacrificed a lot for us growing up. Thanks mom for everything! She even made me a special Mother's Day bracelet that I will always cherish. Happy Mother's Day to you Mom! I hope you have enjoyed your day!
