happy mother's day

to all you lovely mother's out there (especially my mom) happy mother's day! this is a picture of my mom and me from my wedding. she does so much for me and i'm so thankful for her.

this is what they handed out in church today, flowers for all the mothers (and future mothers).

my primary girls (ctr 5 class) loved my single pink tulip so much, they decided to take turns holding it. sadly the stem didn't make it through the end of church. i still think it looks nice chopped off in this little bottle though.

then the next day

i photographed them on the windowsill.

turns out i liked the windowsill on it's own just as well.   oh well, i gave the flowers a chance.

cheesy photos

so i don't really photograph flowers.  never really have much.  but then one day i did.  and i sort of liked it.  and then i thought "these could go on a calendar".  and then i was sad and had to blog about it. sorry for the cheese.
