My mother's day was great. Saturday night Matthew took me on a date to Jonah's. It was so good. I had shrimp and grits. AMAZING!!! I think I have a new favorite. Then Matthew and I went to verizon and he got me texting on my phone. I didn't have it because I blocked it while in college. I would get texts from my friends who "butt text me" It was costing my dad money, so ihad it blocked. I never cared to get it, but a few of my closest friends have been begging me to get it. I am glad I have it, but I'm hoping I don't get addicted.
I wasn't expecting anything from my babies. Not because they don't care, but Matthew's been super busy with work and studying. I had to go to the grocery store this morning to make some sides for lunch. I came home and he and the kiddos had made me a card. It was perfect and sweet.
We went to my mom's and had fun. Alyssa loves to swim. I think she's my little fish.
I had an awesome day. Each one of my children brings me joy. Today God highlighted for me all the things that bring me joy. It was good. I needed to see that because I've been rather exhausted lately and have missed out on a lot of things my children have to offer.

Alaina I love reading your blogs. I love how honest you are! Motherhood is HARD and before I became a mom no one ever talked about anything negative and when I felt frustrated or drained it made me feel like a bad mom. It wasn't until I heard other mom say they had days like this too that I realized I was not alone. Glad you had a great Mother's Day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jennifer. I didn't know if anyone enjoyed reading my blog or not. I have a hard time just enjoying my kids. God's working on me, but it's a loooong road right now.
