Happy Mother's Day
I just wanted to share with you all today the wonderful gift Luke gave me for Mother's Day. He made it at school. I am amazed at where the teachers come up with it all. So here goes.
The top part has a paper plate with an imprint of his hand in green paint. And the bottom reads:
I miss you when we're no togehter
I'm growing up so fast
See how big I have gotten
Since you saw me last?
As I grow, I'll change a lot,
The years will fly right by.
You'll wonder how I grew so quick
When and where and why?
So look upon this hand print
That's hanging on your wall.
And memories will come back of me,
When I was very small.
Love Luke
Well do I need to tell you but I balled like a baby. Luke was wondering why I was crying. I love my kids with all my heart and it is moments like this that bring everything back.
So to all the mothers that read this Happy Mother's Day. I hope it brings fond memories back to you as well.

See you fell for the old paper plate handprint poem. I remember loving the novelty of that when my nephews were in preschool and then when Taylor made one for Father's Day in Kindy I cried too. I felt like we were being initiated once again into parenthood, well at least into parenthood of a schoolage child.
I don't remember getting that poem with Mykayla and I haven't with Noah but Noah's class did make simple laminated placemats and his said "I love Mommy because Mommy loves me." Pretty darn creative huh.
