I considered last Mother's Day my first Mother's Day. I was 20 weeks pregnant and to me, that qualified me enough to be considered a mom. Not many people actually agreed with me, though. Since the baby was still inside I guess I wasn't technically a mother yet. Even so, my family all got me sweet little gifts for our sweet little baby and it was a wonderful day.
Now that this year is truly my first Mother's Day, I'm kind of at a loss. We usually spend the day with our mothers - at a casino with his mom or at my grandma's with my mom. But this year, it's MY day too. Thomas has hinted that he's already found a little gift for me and asked what I wanted for breakfast. My choice of breakfast? Yes, please! We also decided that the three of us would go to Disneyland for the day.
It's an odd feeling though, being celebrated. I acknowledge that being a stay at home mom is hard. It is. It's a million jobs rolled into one. But, I can't imagine life any other way. My little Buggie is my heart and soul, not really a job. I almost feel like we should be celebrating her for being such a perfect baby. We do that pretty much every day though. This year, I'll enjoy my first mother's day with my first baby and my first husband. (Last one, too.)
What do you new moms have planned for Mother's Day? Any new traditions you'll start?
