My first Mother's Day was quite a treat! It started with sleeping in and not changing diapers! Yipee! Then I was treated to a hot soy latte from Starbucks and my favorite, an apple fritter (not on the diet plan, but oh well).
We spent the whole day together as a family, which was exactly what I had wanted. We intended to go on a picnic at Seward Park, but since the weather was windy and cold we decided to have our picnic in our living room in front of the fireplace. Our little Otto was sure thoughtful to take a nap just as our picnic was getting underway! Hence the big smile on my face. : )
Otto surprised me with garnet (his birthstone) earrings and Andrew arranged for Auntie Adrienne to babysit while we went to dinner at The Harvest Vine. Wow whee what a wonderful day.
It sure was nice to feel special and be with my new family on my first Mother's Day.
