Happy Mother's Day!!

Well, today is Mother's Day. I was sort of feeling a little sorry for myself because Neal had to work at the station so I knew I wasn't going to get the typical sleep in and breakfast in bed treatment. Neal must of had a little chat with Aliya about how the morning should go. About an hour and a half after the boys had woke up, Aliya woke up. She is a late riser, but the moment she got up she came in the living room and told me to go back to bed. She insisted. So I humored her and I got back in my covers and turned on the T.V. (it wasn't a hard decision). I am always a little nervous to leave my kids alone on special occasions because although they have good intension's, they tend to want to do a project that usually turns into a huge mess. No projects this morning. Just a sweet card and Aliya made the boys breakfast and they watched a movie for the morning. Every time I got up Aliya sent me back into my room. She even came in and painted my toenails and then did my hair. So cute. They really are such great kids. They have so much energy and so much excitement for everything. I am so proud to be their Mom. My house is never as clean as I would like it, sometimes I want to pull my hair out and I don't always feel like the best Mom, but I wouldn't change it for the world. I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day. I also have to tell my Mom how much I love her and appreciate her. I really missed not being with her today. She is great and I am so thankful I have her to call everyday and chat about nonsense. I hope she had a great day. Also I just have to say that I have such a great Mother in Law. She is always there if Neal and I need to get out for a night. She is sick right now, so I hope she gets better soon. Happy Mother's Day to you all!
