day 127 - reflections on my sixth mother's day

As I was driving down the road today, I came to the realization that tomorrow is my sixth mother's day. A lot has changed over the past decade. The last time I owned a sunroof I didn't have little kids screaming from the back seat chanting "Peas! Peas! Peas!" while they kicked the back of my seat and threatened to throw their sippy cups out of it.

I also didn't arrive at Mother's Day celebrations with snot on my shirt.

Snot that definitely wasn't there when I put the shirt on an hour earlier.



But that's okay because I also didn't get beautiful cards like this



and thankfully snot washes off.
