My First Mother's Day

How exciting to have my very first Mother's Day! Mark and Nora surprised me with her wrapped up in a pink bow with a beautiful ring tied through it. Whoa! The ring is just beautiful and delivered in the best possible way. To celebrate the day, we had a nice brunch with my parents at Toulouse. It was yummy and Miss Nora slept through the entire meal - an added bonus! Mom and Dad headed out this afternoon to return to Alabama. It was so hard to see them go. I can't seem to quit crying because I already miss them so much. I don't know how we could have made it through the last 3 weeks without them. It is amazing how differently you look at your parents after you become one yourself...

On a happier note, Mark's parents are heading out tomorrow for the Big D from Chattanooga. They are anxious to meet our sweet baby girl. I know that we are going to have a great time with them and Miss Nora will be spoiled rotten!

Happier note #2 - Mark's brother, Matt and his wife Stephanie, welcomed their fourth son on May 7th! Woo hoo! We now have 5 sweet and beautiful nephews. We can't wait to meet Aaron Matthew.
