mother's day party

i got to go to the mother's day party at beckett's preschool again this year. last year, i had a newborn sitting with matt in the parking lot and this year i had a one year old at home and that was much nicer. of course, margaret had a newborn sitting in the parking lot with pat and i will just say... i did not envy her. ha. learning the balance of a two kid life is tricky business. beckett and i decorated a heart pin for me, we ate super sugar overload cookies, and the kids sang some songs and it was cute. sometimes it still feels weird to me that i'm a mother... that i go to mother's day events with MY child... that i'm totally in charge of. i think i would just be totally overwhelmed at the magnitude of this reality if i thought about it too much. i do love my sweet boys a ridiculous amount and beckett and i did have some trouble decorating my pin because he insisted we hold hands the entire time. and it did melt my heart... so i'm pretty happy he is mine.
