Mothers Day Snow

We had a quiet mother's day. Benjamin was sick and so we both stayed home from church. It was a nice respite. Joseph brought me these beautiful flowers....and can you believe, we had snow.
Ben has had croup for almost 10 days. We finally went to the doctor on Friday. He is getting better, but it's slow and I long for some sunshine and warm weather and to have my boy back. I feel so lucky to have him!
Yesterday before his nap I read him Robert Munsch's "I'll love you forever" (I used to say I wouldn't read that book.) - of course I balled my eyes out. "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be." He's growing up too fast.
