Mother's Day Tea







This morning I was invited to a Mother's Day Tea at Emma's school. It was very sweet. They had set up the children's desk out in the hallway. They had on the desk a paper placemat. On the placemat was a card that Emma had made for me. It said Mom you are my..... cup of tea. It was really sweet, she had decorated a tea cup on the inside with ice cream cones. We had a book on each desk that we read together, and we had donughts and ice tea. There was also a silk flower. It was really nice of the teachers to do this for us. It was a special time that we were able to spend together. I got right teary eyed when I looked around and saw all of these mothers with there children. I thought to myself, I am so blessed to be able to spend this time with Emma. So many people have crazy, important, time comsuming jobs, that doesn't allow them to always get to do these special things with their children and here I am enjoying my child. I know I have a crazy schedule, but I am so blessed that it is flexible enough that I can do these kind of things. This was a special Mother's Day memory for me.
