How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

It Brought Me To Tears

in Family, Travel on 05/22/13

Less then two weeks ago I was honoured to have been a part of the amazing Disney Social Media Moms Event in Orlando Florida.  Sadly due to some huge conflicts my girls couldn’t attend.  This did NOT have me feeling like Mother of the year. I mean, I had just spent a full five days enjoying the magic of Disney…without them.  I returned late the evening of Mother’s Day, kissed their sleepy heads, received the biggest of hugs and was once again amazed at how lucky I was to have two sweet and loving girls.  I thought that was it for Mother’s Day, and I was just fine with this.  Until this past Sunday, when I received an incredible gift, a do over!  Mother’s Day a week late.  A fabulous brunch, time playing in the backyard, some sweet gifts and then this, the video that brought me to tears.  One of my favourite songs and the girls telling me no matter what, they will be there for me.

The Sweetest Gift….

 

I am one lucky Mama. 

I hope you will join me in my not so Wordless Wednesday!  Please leave me a comment and/or link up below!

      Extremely sweet and loving of your girls to do this for you! (Song however is about a one-night stand and the guy wanting it to mean more.)

    Woo hoo - another amazing HomeExchange! This week Woo hoo - another amazing HomeExchange! 
This week we felt all kinds of spoiled in our cozy accommodations in gorgeous Scottsdale. We hiked local trails, snuck in a little golf, drove with the top down, ate all the food, and enjoyed a sweet sunset in our own backyard. All because #Homeexchange provided us with a unique - almost free- way to stay in Arizona and see all the things! 

We had such an amazing time we’re already planning our next adventure!
