Today Mckenna invited me to a Mother's Day Tea at her preschool. They had strawberry shortcake and pink lemonade for "tea" and presented each mom with a special necklace they had made.
After "tea" the kids sang a few songs and recited a poem about why they love their mother.
At the end Mckenna gave me a craft she had been working on for the past week with a poem and her hand prints.
The kids were also asked to tell their teacher why they love their mommy. Some of the answers were funny and incriminating...like "she takes me to Costco" or "she let's me chew gum but we don't tell Daddy." While mine isn't as entertaining, it's sincerity is pretty darn sweet.

Come on, can't you find a little extra time in the day to teach your daughters the fine art of quilting? I can hear them crying out for it. And later you can pass on cider milling and cleaning laundry in the washtub!
Sweet!! We had a Mother's Tea too, which I still need to post...Isn't it the greatest feeling to be a mom? I love when we get to hear special songs they've learned and poems...and it really doesn't get much better than those great little crafts! :o)Happy Mother's Day!
