Mother’s Day Recap
Monday, May 10th, 2010
I had a great Mother’s Day. God has blessed me with a wonderful family and amazing daughters. We made reservations at a local restaurant and had lunch there with my in-laws. After that we went to my in-laws’ for coffee and dessert. Services were great at church and we had a great message about…. wait for it……mothers!!! Mike gave me his newly won iPod Touch as my gift and bought me an armband and clip to be able to wear it since I love to listen to audio books. ( I’m a geek)
Here are some pictures from yesterday-
The food was delicious at this restaurant. I got the fried clam strips dinner.
My Mother’s Day picture with the girls. I thought this came out really good!
We had a little tea part with chocolate milk standing in for the tea.
Since there weren’t enough Princess tea cups we had to improvise….
It takes a man who’s secure in his manhood to drink out of a pink, Princess tea cup!
I really feel as if I’m ready to “get back in the game” this week. The past 2.5 weeks I’ve slept in, let some things go around the house, not exercised, over eaten to the point of making myself sick and not read my Bible or prayed as much as I should have. I’m still grieving but I can do that without doing (or NOT doing, as it were) all of the things listed above.
For my spiritual, physical and mental well being I have to get back in the game.
Phillipians 3:12-14
12 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
God is good all the time!!
Dear Mom….
