First Mother's Day

Happy Mother’s Day

Wow… I have the best husband in the world! I had such a great day. He was so good to me because it was my first Mother’s Day (with a baby in my belly). It kind of is a funny story but he first surprised me with a fabulous buffet at the Mandarin Oriental. Oh my gosh, probably the BEST buffet I have ever had in my life! I have never seen food this good or have I ever seen such a beautiful setting of food! There was sushi, crab, steak, salmon, pancakes with cream in the middle, eggs bacon… and so much more! Well Jeff called the week before and asked how much their buffet was, they said “$25 on the weekends”. He thought, not bad, not bad… and then made reservations for Mother’s Day. Well as we walk in to the buffet, I am thinking – holy cow! What are we doing here? This is incredible! And of course Jeff is always so cute and says “don’t worry about it” =). So we eat the fabulous food and loved every minute of it. Well little did we know that the Mother’s Day Buffet is actually $85.00 a person!! What?!! Who would spend that?! And who the heck has that money? We were dying! I guess we were actually laughing after getting the bill. I mean there is no way we would ever look at an $85 buffet and think “let’s do it!”, so the cool thing was, we were able to do it and not even know how much it was =). And we enjoyed every minute of it. At the end of the buffet Jeff surprised me with a Maternity massage and the baby stroller that I wanted. It was by far the best day ever. He is so good to me. I don’t know what I would do without him! I will always remember my first Mother’s Day because of you Jeff. And we will tell our children the funny story of the rich people’s buffet =).

Now a shout out to the wonderful Mother’s in our lives. What would we do without you?! We sure love you more than you could ever know. Thanks to you both, we know how we want to raise our little kiddies. And thanks to you, we know that unconditional love is the most important thing in life. Thank you for all you have taught us. Our children will be the luckiest grandchildren! You will spoil them and they will love every minute of it. Thank you for your amazing support and involvement in our lives. We love that YOU love to come visit us. And we love how excited you are for this little girl to come! If I can be half the mom that you both are, I will be happy!

Love you both!
