Mother's Day

Tyler had a special 'mother's day' day at school on Friday. I was able to be in to his class about half way through his day. The kids sang us several songs (which were very heart warming), gave us snacks (they had even made muffins in class the day before), and then shared a poem, and their thoughts on mom with us. It was a lot of fun. Even leading up to the day was fun because Tyler was very excited about it. They have been practicing songs the last few weeks and one of the song's went something like, My mommy has a special name it's M-O-M-M-Y.....A couple weeks ago he started singing this a lot except my special name was M-O-O-O-Y. I was much realieved to hear him spell it right on Friday :). Below is the poem and hand print they presented to us as well as the back side where he answered the questions, What does your mommy do while you are at school? and Why do you love yor mommy? It was actually really nice to be called mommy a few times too. It seems like Tyler's maturity has shortened my name to mom more often than not these days. And of course our monkey see, monkey do, Hailey therefore calls me "mom" a lot too. Happy Mother's day Mom and Maura. Dave and I are so lucky to have great mom's and families.
