This is What It's All About.


This has been a busy, busy week....finishing up fall grades and getting those courses wrapped up, my husband has had multiple athletic events every day, and then teaching a concentrated summer course....not to mention volunteering at school, softball games, getting ready for Mother's Day and our anniversary, etc., etc., etc.

And then this. This is what makes it worth it all. My three-year-old son, so proud of the gift that he made me at preschool. And it is truly, honestly, totally more beautiful than anything he could have bought me. A little finger-painted poppy flower, in a little clay pot that he exclaimed "I painted it boo (blue) just for you, Momma!" What more can I say. This makes me feel so, so loved and cherished. This is the most beautiful flower I have ever received, My Sweet Boy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I needed that today.
