Mom's Day Tea Lola's School

Me and my Boo...

This was such a very special event at Lola's Preschool! We had such a great time and such a special experience. I can't stress this enough.
It's the kind of thing that makes you so happy and so proud to be a mom, you cry. Happy tears of course. Let me tell you what happend first:

The night before the event Eden came down with a bad bad cold. I emailed my mom asking for her help with watching Eden, because Lola was so looking forward to our Mom's Day tea at her school. She even picked out our outfits and she couldn't stop talking about it. So, thankfully my mom was available to help watch Eden. Thank you again mom! Life saver!

When I first walked into the room Lola ran up to me and said, "Mommy I love you!" and she lead me to the table which had been set with placemats that the children made that said "God loves You" and there were plants that they grew just for us moms. The kids got to sit on our laps and we shared a "spot of tea." That morning in preparation for the day, the kids made homemade blueberry muffins for us moms. It was so very precious! Lola held on tight to me and kept saying she loved me. She was so happy and so very proud of herself. Then she gave me a cloth book mark that she made and painted and a card that was shaped like a tea pot with her picture on it and a wonderful mom's day poem and a tea bag.

I felt like crying! I really really enjoy these moments. I remember my first tea at Eden's preschool. My goodness time flies by WAY TOO TOO FAST! It was just yesterday my babies were babies. Now one's almost as tall as me and the other corrects me every day and asks a million questions.
