The Daily Hailey

I’m getting my Mother’s Day fun today! 😁 I am SO grateful for that, because not only is it very nice to be loved on a little extra by the ones I love the most, but its also an excellent distraction from the fact that its snowing like crazy outside 😳 Why????? Actually, I know why. Its snowing because we packed up our winter stuff yesterday. We take responsibility for the weather. Friends, we’re sorry. 

Aaaaanywho, I was welcomed to stay put in bed while Brady got the kids up and got a breakfast together for me. They made turnovers, and drizzled them with purple icing! It was VERY cute, and they were all super proud of themselves. 

Also, the three oldest made me cards. 

Rowan’s is heavy on the stencils and hearts with three bumps. Lol!

Laela’s has a slightly dark message, but I know what she’s going for 😉 As for the snowman, she says I’m building it. Not shooting it. 

And Dekker made two cards, because one had to pop extra!

They are SO cute!!!

Laela’s teacher also contacted everyone about a week ago and confessed her Mother’s Day plans. While it was no longer a surprise, she still wanted us to have our gifts. Brady took Laela there the other day to choose from a wheelbarrow in her teacher’s driveway, and I was gifted a beautiful little family of succulents!! 

I need to find another place to keep succulents! My little kitchen window sill is so full! 

I started my morning with breakfast in bed, peacefully, and the remainder of the morning has continued to be about the same level of contentment. I had a lovely intentional snuggle time with Laela, and then Dekker sat on my lap and read me a comic book 🙂 Rowan has requested a good snuggle with a story, as well, but our morning ran out. We’ll make it happen this afternoon though!! And we’ll see if the other two have the attention span for a snug. Likely I’ll just push some tickle fights on them 😆 We’ll see how it plays out. 

Possibly my favourite part of today is that I have no hand in supper tonight 😍 I have no idea what the plan is but I know I don’t have to worry about it. Win!!! 

I am VERY grateful for my crew here. My crew who almost knocked me down while they all tried to hug me at once on our walk yesterday. 

Thank you Lord for making me a mother.
