happy mother's day!

dear kids of mine,
i'm so happy that God sent you to me to borrow. His generosity gives me the title 'mother', of which i am very proud. today i'm keenly aware of the ways in which you make my life more interesting and full. a few particulars from this morning come to mind:

-Lucy receiving communion this morning under both species (bread and wine), very carefully, under the nervous eye of the Eucharistic minister.

-Victor having a meltdown in the grocery store and wailing repeatedly at the top of his lungs, "Good behavior is NOT it's own reward!"

-Sweet, homemade mother's day cards

-A new, colorful scarf that the baby 'picked out herself' for me (apparently, she really did)
