Mother's Day Tea

At the girls' school, they really go all out for Mother's day.  Both Lily and Ava's classes had a tea time planned especially for the mothers.  Lucky for me, Ava's class did a morning tea and Lily's did an afternoon tea.  So I got to be fed and pampered twice!  It was great! 

Here we are at Ava's morning tea. 
 Here is Ava serving me my cupcakes and biscuits. 
 And here is Ava putting my mother's day present she bought for me in her backpack. 
It was so much fun to play at recess with Ava and get to spend the morning with her.

Then that afternoon, I got to go to Lily's class. 

 This is Lily and her whole class reciting a poem for all the mom's that they had learned. 
 Lily's class had a bunch of different pampering stations set up.  This is the jewelry making one.  Here is Lily making me a necklace. They also had a massage station, a hair dressing station and a manicure and pedicure station.  We went to all of them, of course!
 Here I am after I got my hair professionally done by Lily. 
 Here is Lily very carefully painting my toenails. 

 Wow, look at the finished work!  She's pretty good, right? 
 Here's Lily just looking cute, and trying to decide what we should wear for the photo booth.  They had a bunch of dress ups we could choose from.
 Here we are trying to take a selfie.  Haha!
 Lily decided that we should wear witch hats in the photo booth. 
 Then we got to eat.  Here is Lily scarfing a delicious cupcake.  The food really was amazing! 
 Here we are after school with all my loot that I got from my girls.  I love them and Will so much! 

I'm so grateful and happy that I get the chance to be a mother.  Nothing has challenged me more in my life and I don't think anything ever will.  But nothing has brought me more joy in my life either and I don't think anything else ever will!  I am also so grateful for the mothers in my life.  My own and Cory's especially and all the wonderful grandmothers that I have been blessed to know and learn from.  Thank you all for being such great mothers.  Happy Mother's Day!!!
