Today was an awesome Mothers Day!
It started with me sleeping in until 8:30am, which is about 3 hours later than I usually wake. That was quite a luxury. DH came in with the kids and they gave me cards they had made.
T and DH then made me breakfast in bed- coffee, apple juice, muesli and a plate of mandarin segments and crimson grapes. Yum!
After brekky I spent an hour or so tidying the house- it was an utter pigsty after I was away for 9 hours yesterday. Then I decided to make scones for afternoon tea and invited MIL over. My mum didn't get an invite or a 'Happy Mothers Day' from me.
Took the kids shopping to get supplies then when we got back DH made big brekky for lunch. It's a Sunday tradition for us. Then I had to get my butt into gear and make the scones whilst the kids made a card for their Gran. It was my first time making scones. They were perhaps cooked for a couple of minutes too long, but they were still good.
Jimmy entertained us all with his robot dance. That kid is the most hilarious little man ever.
DH made a mega-tasty Chinese dish for dinner- beef with mandarin. It was gorgeous. He also made baked custard for dessert.
Even though no money was spent on gifts or cards, I was thoroughly spoiled. My beautiful man made me delicious food, my stepdaughter was being extra helpful, and my kids were happy. What more could I ask for?
