Mother's Day 2010

Happy Mother's Day 2011!

This was my second Mother's Day since you were born, Katy, and it was much better than the last. Last year, I had to go to work the day right after Mother's Day, so all during Mother's Day I was really sad knowing that I had to leave you to go to work. Not this year, though!

This year for Mother's Day, Daddy treated me to a night at a local hotel all by myself so that I could enjoy a full night of rest, without interruption and without having to hear any cries. It was wonderful and very restful. After a night away, though, I was happy to get back to you, Katy! I missed you (though I greatly appreciated the full night's sleep and leisurely breakfast!) and I always enjoy your smiles and giggles!

When you and Daddy picked me up from the hotel, this morning, there was a special card waiting on my seat. Daddy had traced your hands and one foot (that's all he could get you to sit still for), and you got to color the card with markers. Fun- especially since you seem to have a fascination with pens and markers and we don't let you play with them on a regular basis.
