Blessing filled weekend

How blessed am I? More than I could ever say with words. Mother's Day, as hectic as it was, ended up being just perfect. Brian woke up early and started making breakfast. He was then joined by Braeden in the kitchen and the outcome was delicious. Pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage! Talk about the works. Brian also had coffee ready and gave me a new mug. I love it!
I was able to sit and relax, plus I ended up sewing a shirt which I'll be putting up on Etsy. I miss sewing, I've been so busy and tired that I haven't been able to take the time like I would want, hopefully I will be able to soon.
Braeden gave me a book about gardening and a movie with the help of his Gram and with the help of Brian he gave me the second season of Two and a Half Men! Plus I got several fun Mother's Day cards which made me laugh. Including one which sang "Under Pressure" from Braeden. Very cool.
Saturday we went to Kevin's graduation party and then Jackson's birthday party. Kevin graduated from college, go him! And Jackson turned six! There were same-aged boys going crazy at the party. Man it was interesting. Brian and I were kind of dumbfounded and also scared since we know we have that to look forward to with Brae.
Sunday after all the festivities from the men in my life we then went to my Grandma's. Her birthday was Friday so we celebrated her birthday and Mother's Day. I also got to see my Mom and I gave her a bag I made along with the same movie she had picked out and let Brae give me (P.S. I Love You) and a book by Max Lucado.
Then we went to see Brian's Mom and we stayed there for a couple hours just talking and having fun while Braeden eventually became a human wire and started making up his own language while bouncing around. This was his body shouting of pure exhaustion from a very busy weekend.
The only thing bad was the Flyers losing. =o/ Sorry guys.
And the work week has begun with rain, flooding, power outages and 45 mph winds. Yes, it is Monday.
Well I hope you all had a fabulous and bless-filled weekend! Happy Monday!
