Mother's Day was quite simple for us this year. We took our time waking up and getting ready and then headed to Busch Gardens for some carefree time on the rides. BG is one of our favorite places to go on the weekend, even if it's just for a couple of hours. Sometimes we go up and just go to the different shows, other times we go and play in Dragonland with Keke or jump from rollar coaster to rollar coaster with the boys. Fun outside in the fresh air, watching the kids laugh and be happy is the best gift of all for me.
The boys went Mother's Day shopping when I went shopping for my mom. Tyler used his gift card from Christmas to get me a Vera Bradley purse. He's such a generous young man. Then he got on our computer at home and made me a card. Nothing better than something made from scratch by your kiddo's! I am so very proud of all three of my sweeties! Now Grafton and Tyler probably don't want to be refered to as sweeties but that's life. I'm so very proud of the young men that they both are becoming. They both have been a godsend to me with Gary being gone. Grafton has really stepped up and is trying his hardest to be there whenever I need him. Their dad's best qualities have began to rub off on them and it warms my heart.
You all can probably imagine how stressful life has been here trying to get things done with the house, the boys school work and grades, putting together paperwork for our house purchase in KC and the list just never ends! I absolutely HATE moving and I'm praying that the next time (if there is another time) that we can stay together as a family and go through these struggles together as a husband and wife! LOL! And hear I thought we had left the military! LOL!
Happy Mother's Day to my mom and my much missed mother-in-law!
