In addition to the tea and cookies, we had corsages to wear and gifts prepared for us. Each of the mommies got a dish towel with their child's hand print and a cookbook of "recipes" by the kids. The cookbook is hilarious! Here is one of C's recipes:
Tomato Soup
Cook the soup in a pan.
Cook it for 60 hours.
The soup is hot so let it cool off.
Then make a grilled cheese to dip in the tomato soup.
On Sunday, I got to sleep in and had a lovely breakfast prepared by my husband. Complete with homemade waffles, sausage, eggs, and fruit. Oh, and coffee of course! The boys gave gave me a sweet card and a bookmark they had picked out. I also got a gift card to Barnes & Noble, which was completely C's idea!
Later that day, we went over to my parent's house for a crawfish boil. Thanks to my parents, brother and sis in law for getting that together!
Here's my husband showing the boys a crawfish.
Baby P checking out the crawfish.
Boys and dirt...inseparable.
Ipo and Baby P.
My Mom and I.
All the mamas.
Three of five...
And here's one of Baby P and me. Look, he's smiling for a picture! (I tickled him.)
I usually get this grumpy face. Ha, ha! Cracks me up.
Our meal. Yum!
It was a nice weekend filled with lots of fun and relaxation!
Being a mom is truly the most challenging thing there is. No doubt about that! But I adore it, cherish it, and would not trade it for anything! I love, love, love my husband and our 3 beyond precious boys God has given us.
Hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day!

I nearly cried at the Mother's Day tea with Mrs. Campbell last year - isn't it just the sweetest thing?!
And a crawfish boil sounds like a perfect ending!! Glad you had a great day!
