Mother's Day

My beautiful boys: Ryan, Tyler, Chase & Ben
 My first Mother's day with all four children was absolutely wonderful.  Derek got up the the kids Saturday and Sunday morning and let me sleep in.  He also made blueberry pancakes for breakfast.  Ben came in to wake me up and told me, "You is special and we celebrate you today, Mommy."  So sweet!  He also let me in on the secret that they got me flowers and a cookie cake to celebrate.   For lunch we went to Five Guys, simply because there are not a lot of options to take a 3 year old and 3 babies out to eat.  After lunch, we went to a nearby park.  Ben rode his bike and we pushed the babies in the strollers.  I was also blessed to have my little sister here in town with us for the week.  Derek was able to take some pictures while we were at the park.  I love the picture he captured of the boys and me.  It was impossible to get everyone to look at the camera at the same time, but I love this one more because it captures a glimpse of my every day life. It may be crazy and hectic at times trying to care for four children all with their own needs and wants, but I love it and wouldn't trade it for the world.  I am so blessed.  Everyone had a great time at the park so much that we all went home and took a nap.  It was a relaxing, enjoyable, perfect day with my family!
