Mother's Day Tea

Today Abi's preschool hosted a Mother's Day Tea. Needless to say, it was adorable! For me, it brought up a flood of emotions but also great to see Abi at preschool - performing, interacting and playing with her friends.

The Tea began with Abi welcoming me, giving me a handmade bookmark and taking me to my seat. Once all the Moms were seated, the kids served us strawberries, pound cake and juice.


Patiently waiting for the entertainment portion of the program to begin...



At this point, the kids left the room to prepare for the second half of our entertainment program while the Moms watched a slide show of pictures taken of the kids throughout the year. Thank goodness I was prepped and knew of the slide show before I went to the Tea or I would have been a crying mess! It was just precious and so fun to get a little glimpse into their lives while in school.



All the little Cowboys and Cowgirls

Next, the kids presented us with some homemade Mother's Day gifts - a card and a decorative pin she made with beads. Hands down - my favorite gift of the year! :)
(Just in case you can't read it, it says "I love you Mommy because you give me candy...and...because you give me crayons...and...because you grow something...and because you water something...and...because you be nice to me...and...because you love me too...and...because you are my best friend")
