I must say that I do love being a Mommy and I do love Mother's Day! :D Major props to whoever thought up celebrating special days for Moms and Dads. It is indeed a great gift from God... to be a Mom or Dad, and to have Moms and Dads. :) I have to take a little segment of this post to brag on my oh-so-wonderful husband, who is definitely a thoughtful man. Although off in Iraq, he managed to have an entire bush mailed to our home for me (from Maria of course ;D)! And not just any bush, but my favorite - a wonderfully fragrant gardenia bush! I was in heaven - both from its sweet smell and from his genuine thoughtfulness. Here's a show off pic. :)
Here's another great cause for celebration this Mother's Day, one from which I'm still on cloud 9 over... MARIA'S WALKING!!! Wahoo! I'm so excited! She's been doing her pop up trick for quite some time, and in recent weeks she had started rocking back and forth or "accidentally" taking little shimmy-like steps. But yesterday (Mom's Day) she intentionally walked!! We were getting ready for her bath, and as she was crawling toward me, she popped up, gave this funny little grin on her face and just walked on over to me! She only takes a few steps at a time right now before toppeling over, but I am absolutely the proudest Mama ever! What a perfect Mother's Day gift. :) (I'm really crazy excited... Can you tell? :D ) (btw, I do apologize for my high pitched cheering.)
