Mother's Day 2012

This year thanks to our favorite hang-out, Chick Fil A, the boys and I have had a great Mother's Day.  This year Chick Fil A offered a Mother-Son Date Knight!  We signed up, knowing Bobby would be at the fire station all weekend!  I told the boys they were taking me on a date and Rob informed me, I was taking him on a date since I could drive.  So I gave him some money, and we began our night.  As we walked up to CFA, there were plenty of decorations to make us feel like we were in a castle.  We were greated by some young ladies in fancy "Princess" clothes as Rob called them.  The young men were dressed as knights.  We were welcomed in took a picture with the knight cow and then escorted to our seats.
The tables were covered in white linens with flowers and complete with plastic shields and swords, which made for a very disrtacting meal!  The juggler got their attention real quick.  The waiter came and took our order and Rob was so proud he got to pay!  He had noticed when people left the moms got a rose and he was getting impatient about getting me a rose.   When we finally finished our meal, Rob asked me to close my eyes and he went and got me a rose!  Such a sweet boy!
So thankful for our CFA and our wonderful date-knight!!

I was never the type of girl who dreamed of having children, I just knew it was what was supposed to happen.  I adore my boys, but most of the time I feel unqualified to raise them.  I am always looking for advice on raising them!!  I by no means want to wish away their lives, but I look forward to watching them grow.  I love where we are, I love  that there is communication and some bit of self functioning!  I am so blessed and confused that God chose me for Rob and Ryan.  There are days I have to sit and ask God what he was thinking. I also am so thankful to Bobby for trusting me to raise his precious boys.  As much as I feel unprepared to raise Rob and Ryan, I also know that God gave them to me, because He knows we are perfect for each other.
