Mother’s Day 2015

Happy Mother’s Day, Mom and Grandma! I hope you both know how much we love you. I know today wasn’t great for Grandma, but I hope by tomorrow you are feeling better.

Today was really happy here. Abe worked his little tail off for all the mothers in his life, and I felt celebrated and loved all day. He really outdid himself today, and I feel so grateful and happy.

Here are some pictures from the day:

The girls made some cards for me and were so cute and excited to give them to me this morning.

Abe promised me that he took verbatim dictation on the cards. They touched my heart.

...Well, except for Mary's card. She had no idea what was going on, so Abe supplied the entire sentiment. She supplied the painted exterior.
