Mother's Day

My last Mother's Day as a mother of one and what a day it was! It started sweetly and excitedly with a special delivery in bed, led to a picnic lunch together and later a lovely meal on our deck made by Daddy. I'm blessed to be a mother of such a wonderful son.

MOMENT: Good morning, Sunshine!

Tavish has been eagerly waiting to show me his presents. I knew what they were and where they were being stored (turns out, 3 year olds aren't great at keeping secrets), but managed to convince him to show them to me the morning of Mother's Day. The wait was worth it - the delivery brightened my day!



MOMENT: The Picnic Adventure

We decided to go on a short 3km+ local adventure to continue the Mother's Day celebration accompanied by Tavish's bike, a soccer ball, and a great spread for lunch. No, seriously, our 3 year old biked and/or kicked a soccer ball that entire way and we all managed to come home feeling positive and excited. Turns out, Tavish's positive energy is contagious!



FLASHBACK: My First Mother's Day, 2009

We were still living in Toronto and we had a lovely day out in the city. Here are two photos taken on our deck that day. My how our baby has grown up - this time next year, I'll have TWO 'babies' to celebrate with! Such a lucky Mommy.
