Mother’s Day was very mixed this year.  The day also marked Mom’s 49th birthday so it was difficult for the family but we all made it through.  And I know Mom had a great day.  Christopher really made it special for me.  I told him that I didn’t care about making a big deal out of the day for me because while I’m growing a baby, I don’t actually have that baby to hold and take care of right now.  Of course, he didn’t listen.  We went to a MS Braves game after church (they won!) and then out to dinner at Outback Steakhouse.  He got me a really cute card and my in-laws got me two really cute cards and a little Mother’s tote.  It’s blue and brown and very pretty and has a Proverbs 31 verse on it.  So the day, despite the underlying heartache, was a very good one for me, and I have to say that I am very blessed to have such a wonderful husband and family.
