Mothers Day

I guess it was really Mothers Day where it hit me that I am actually a Mother of a tiny child. I'm still taking things as they come! It was a wonderful day, and I felt very blessed and special. I really do love being a Mother.

One of the highlights of my Mothers Day was my gift from little Edison (or Dad) Nate cut out a life size picture of little Et holding a bunch of daffodils, and wrote a sweet note on the back. This life size picture of Et will be used for many more celebrations down the road...

Our 1st year Anniversary

Nate and I celebrated our first year Anniversary May 3rd. Time has FLOWN by. I honestly didn't think I'd have a kid that was almost three months old by this time. So much has happened! We celebrated this little occasion at "Cricket Field" a secluded place on the north shore of Laie. Nate introduced this spot to me when we were just barely starting to date. We rode our bikes out across this green field to a little spot full of trees where we sat and he read me poetry by Tagore. ( I thought him very cultured). From then on it became a place for us to retreat to and stare longingly into each others eyes. It did however hold it's fair share of "define the relationship" talks, and thoughts like "Isn't he going to kiss me?", and "I think I really love this person." It was wonderful to go back there as a family of three and find our same little spot almost as though time had never passed.
