Mothers Day

I love mothers day. Along with my birthday it is the best day of the year. The kids took good care of me. Dave always says I have to tell the kids what I want. They were really good at telling Dave what I wanted. First Friday night I went out with some girlfriends to get a pedicure and dessert. It was fun to stay out and talk and be at a restaraunt without kids. Then Saturday Dave took the kids out that evening to get some things for me. It was nice to have the house to myself. They came home so excited to give me their presents. They went straight down to the craft room and made me cards. It was so sweet Siena helped Ben write on his and they hid them till Sunday. Ben is still awful at keeping secrets and told me about everything they did. I was watching t.v. when they got home and a commercial for a twix bar came on and he wispered to me that is what I got you. He was so excited about it. Sure enough Sunday morning I got a Twix bar from him. I also got beautiful flowers and more of my favorite candy and a Cold Stone ice cream cake. It is heaven I love it so much. Dave got the big one so we are still enjoying it!
Siena making sure that her and Claire match.

Ben so excited about the cake

Friday at Siena's preschool they had a mothers day program. I was so excited to go. She was way excited too. I love these cute things that they make. We went to this big room where all the kids stood in front of their moms and sang them songs. Siena refused to sing so it was just her standing there in front of me. It was funny how stubborn she was. She would not dance or sing. Then we went to the kids classrooms and had a light brunch. She made us tons of things.

a card all about mommy. I don't think Siena really knows I have a name as she wrote my name as mom. We talk about how old I am all the time so I know she knows that. It was funny that she said I work at home and vacuum my house because that is the thing I hate doing the most, it's just what we had done the day before so I guess it was fresh on her mind. I love this card it makes me laugh.

Siena and her friend Sarah. It makes me laugh at how small Siena is. We got her class picture and she was the smallest girl in her class. This is when her class was singing to us.
