I have to laugh because the morning didn't start like I was picturing in my head. You know, the sleep in late and have some breakfast brought to you. Instead I was risen from bed at 4:45 and then a 3-month-old not wanting to go back to sleep. I decided to bring him into the bed with us and promptly at 6:45 the poor little guys threw up everything that was in his belly. So, I started a load of wash and then heard the other two little men waking up. Matty wanted Daddy to get him because Daddy was gone for a few days and at first was very clingy to him to the point that he didn't want to give me a hug. Fine. Lovely. Tyler woke up and usually wants me to help him and today he said "no I want Daddy since he wasn't here for a few days" This usually doesn't bother me in the slightest but today I was looking for a little loving. He yelled down "Mommy, you can hold my underwear" Seriously?! How kind and generous of you, Tyler. Underwear....just wanted I always wanted! He didn't know it but it didn't make get the giggles. Eventually, all the boys came downstairs and sang "Happy Mother's Day" to me while I was putting away dishes (that I really didn't want to do!). Then they all snuck outside, picked a rose each, and then came back in and each one asked me if I wanted to go on a date. Next thing you know we were sitting at the Quentin Haus having a delicious breakfast and enjoying each other's company and my morning was definitely redeemed! It was a whole lot of fun sitting there in our PJ's eating some great food and catching up.
Church was wonderful and all the other mommies were so pleasant and also happy. It's always a nice mass and we receive a blessing at the end. I even convinced the family to get a picture under the tree and surprisingly everyone agreed and cooperated quite well (a first for the 5 of us!).
