Mother's Day Celebrations

The older my kids get, the more fun Mother's Day becomes. They get more into it and expect dad to do the same. John-David was suppose to be on call that day but I reminded him that he was on call last Mother's Day and that his friend Luke made me dinner (Luke and Marianne were visiting). He made some changes and was able to get it off. He spent the afternoon making a lovely dinner for all of us with a full table setting. It was so nice. He and Jocey made a special dessert called "Hot Milk Cakes" that was so good.

It was a hot item at our house and oh so good.
Beautiful presentation!
The kindergarten had a Mother's Day Tea Party the next day. We met in the cafeteria and enjoyed a snack of lemonade and cookies. They made a special place mat and some other goodies for us. It was very cute. I felt so bad for the few kids who didn't have a have anyone show up for them. I am glad that I have a schedule where I can show up to all my children's important school things.
They sang some songs to us.

Immediately after Jackson's tea party, I went to Jocelyn's preschool Mother's Day Tea party. It was held at Jocelyn's preschool teacher's house. This is Jocelyn with her good friend Emma. I think Emma had watched Napoleon Dynamite recently and was pulling a Deb pose.

The moms all sat at these lovely set tables and ate strawberries
and muffins while the kids played. It was such a lovely morning.
The bar has been set high, so my little family better not disappoint
next year in having a fabulous Mother's Day.
