On Mother's Day afternoon as I was driving home from church I had a call from Elliott who had just arrived in Germany where he had a conference and training for the next two weeks. I also had the kindest email from Becca who made me feel very special with her warm and loving words.
When I got home (and Steve) David and Jonathan came over to visit for a couple of hours. That was very sweet, and it was a beautiful day to sit outside and enjoy some strawberry shortcake together. Erika was sleeping in preparation for a night shift in the NICU, but not before she took the time to send a happy greeting for Mother's Day via email.
After the boys (now men) left, Steve and I went to the C & O Canal National Park Site to ride our bikes along the canal. It was such a perfect day for it.
And on Monday after Mother's Day, Jessica came home from a weekend trip to San Francisco with a friend and surprised me with a special tea mug and tea infuser and special strawberry rhubarb tea from David's Tea.
