Mothers Day!

So my favorite part of mothers day was the book Kaitlyn brought home from preschool for me. It said:

My mom, I like it when my mom plays with me and holds me. My mom likes to eat meatballs and ham. My mom is always calling on the phone. My mom is really good at telling me to be soft with my sister. My moms favorite thing to do is cook. I love my mom because she rocks me.

oh wow, little did I know that my favorite food was meatballs and ham. I had no idea how much I was on the phone and didn't realize that cooking was my favorite thing to do. Do I really even enjoy cooking at all? I guess we find out who we are from the things our very honest children observe.

The next best thing about mothers day was that Brad finished my baseboards for me. Well at least finished putting them up. Now all we have to do is caulk, putty and paint. Wow these home improvement projects sure do take a lot of time. Here are a few pics with my new floor and baseboards. oh, and notice what a great help Matthew was the whole time. He sure enjoyed working with his dad. I don't know that Brad enjoyed it as much, but thought it was somewhat cute that Matthew kept giving him the wrong tools.

You're a great Mommy it sounds like! McKenna thought that my favorite thing to do was vacuum (I am glad she didn't say blogging.) I guess there are worst things she could have said :)
