A Wonderful Day

Yesterday was one of the nicest Mother's Days I have ever had. My day started with my son, Matty, treating me to breakfast in bed. (As you can see from the post below, he will always be my baby!) He made a delicious breakfast -- has anyone else ever had stuffed, baked french toast? I highly recommend it!

Accompanying my breakfast was this lovely note on my napkin. If you read my post about how I love and keep cards, letters and notes, you will not be surprised to know that I immediately asked Matt for another napkin because this one is a keeper.

After breakfast, we prepared a lunch which we shared with our dear friend, Doreen, and her family after Matt, Doreen and I went to church. Doreen's husband, daughters and grandson were there, too; we had a lovely afternoon.

The late afternoon and evening were relaxing and laid-back, but Matt wasn't quite done with making me feel loved and appreciated. He also made dinner--chicken enchiladas, refried beans, Spanish rice, chips and guacamole--which we didn't eat until quite late in the evening.

Reflecting at the end of the day, I know the only thing that would have made it better would have been to also get to the spend the day with my own beloved mother.
