How was your Mother’s Day? Mine was fantastic.
I got breakfast in bed, a happy, well-behaved baby, a leather kindle cover, and chicken saltimbocca (see below) with roasted asparagus and potatoes for dinner. Then Tyler watched a non-action movie with me (Mona Lisa Smile) while we snuggled. It was perfect.
I can’t even begin to describe how grateful I am to be a mother, participating in the most essential work to be done on earth. I feel so incredibly blessed, and want to cry all over the keyboard when I think about it. Thank you to my own beautiful mother who taught me firsthand that “no other success can compensate for failure in the home” (David O. McKay).
AND, you're fantastic at it! Really, Alex… just watching you I can tell what a fabulous mother you are. I have SO much admiration for you – so expect some questions when it's my turn someday. Haha!
