Mother's Day!

Well today was my first Mother's Day and I had a great time! I am so lucky to be a mum to such a gorgeous little boy and thank you to Michel for a wonderful day and for spoiling me! I can't wait for next year!! hehe! :)
I got a beautiful diamond and gold heart shaped pendent and necklace for our anniversary and mothers day and also a video camera!! The video camera was a complete surprise and Michel had been teasing me about what was in the box for the last few days. Tsk tsk!!

We had mum and Michel's parents over for lunch today and it was nice and relaxing. A great day!

Here is Lucas always trying to get our coke zero drinks! Yiayia would shoot us if you drank that!! hehe

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day! xx

Here is a beautiful poem for mums and grandmothers!

Before I was a Mum

Before I was a Mum I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunisation.
Before I was a Mum - I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mum I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mum I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mum.

Before I was a Mum - I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mum - I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, The joy, The love, The heartache, The wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mum.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mum.

And before I was a Grandma, I didn't know that all those "Mum" feelings more than doubled when you see that little bundle being held by "your baby"...
