Right after two wonderful talks in sacrament we headed to my parents house, upon arrival my mom and Lydibug just took off and read books and spent time together. Mitch, Lydibug and I were there for almost two hours before we left to have dinner.
Dinner was spent with Mitchels mom and family at Golden Corral, there was so much family there that we didn't really get to sit with or talk with his mom. After we went to his mothers house to spend some one on one with his mom.
When we returned I talked for a long time with my mom while Mitch was off somewhere and Lydibug was running back and forth between Grandma and I and Papa, she also played with Papa some one on one.
After saying goodnight to Mom I went to put Lydibug to bed but Mitch was kind enough to do that while I read a note he wrote for me. It was so sweet and just what I needed at this time in my life. He listed why i'm a good mother.
Here are some things he said about me.
1. You are unselfish. You put Lydias needs about your own constantly. When she's in need you are always making her needs priority.
2. You are Understanding. Whenever Lydia cries, gets hurt or is expressing whatever she does in many crazy different forms, you are constantly striving to understand her feelings. You are continually understanding.
3. You understand the meaning of SACRIFICE. You immediately give up your sleep when she wakes up crying, you give your time ALMOST EVERY TIME when she wants to read a book, you know when to focus your love on her and not on me.
4. You practice pure love constantly. You don't just love our daughter, you show her your love unfailingly, and that love lives on in her and will pass on to her children.
At the bottom of the note he drew me a rose. haha.
Any way I loved the letter!!! We spent the rest of the evening snacking and watching an episode of Arrow.
I loved Mothers day and am so thankful for the mothers in my life!
