mother's day

i love being a mother, and i love holidays. 

we've had a few classic cases of "different expectations" in our marriage when it comes to holidays, but nate made me feel loved (and i remembered our anniversary this year!).

we went to a mother's day concert on the green in the botanic gardens, and i remembered why we don't do those concerts more often...so sweaty! but i forgot about all that sweat and heat with goat cheese, brie, berries, apples, crackers, and grapes. there's no better combo. 

i am so in love with this girl who made me a mother. 

while it's not always easy, it's always, always worth it.
