Mother's Day

Mother's Day this year was awesome. I don't usually enjoy Mother's Day, but Dave put in a lot of effort this year to make it great and the boys are getting old enough to help out.

On Mothers Day, I awoke to the smell of bacon and voices hushing each other as they discussed their plan to bring me breakfast in bed. Cruise and Jett talked about how surprised I would be when they woke me up, so of course I had to close my eyes and pretend I was still sleeping. They came upstairs and quietly woke me up to their presentation of pancakes, bacon, blueberries with whipped cream, a banana, and orange juice. It was delicious!
Then just as I got out of the shower that morning, the boys came bursting in telling me to open my gifts. Cruise had actually made me a gift and card at school that he presented to me at the Ultimate Show and Tell that I just LOVE! So cute!
Dave gave me a box of truffles and a chocolate caramel apple from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and a very sweet card. Cruise gave me a homemade hologram (the cup with the plastic spoon in it) and Jett gave me a Hershey bar that was already consumed by the two of them before this picture was taken. They also gave me a really cute card that they dictated to Dave.
Dear Mom, I love you because you love my inventions and your hugs make me happy. I love you. I care about Mothers Day. Thank you for helping me with my Autism. Mom, thanks for always helping me with science! Love, Cruise
Dear Mom, I love you Mom. And you love my things that I build. I love you because you took me to the zoo. I love you because you help me with the computer. You always help me with the tablet. I love you because you help me set the table. You help me with the pancakes. You help me with the...actually, that's it. Love, Jett
A few days later, Jett gave me a sand dollar ring from school that he said was also my Mother's Day present. I have such sweet kids. 
I had asked for a nap and chocolate for Mother's Day, but because Dave let me sleep in so late, I didn't even need a nap! So I asked him if I could use it another day. ;-)
