My Momma's Day..as a Momma, not a daughter

Most of my existence before Doodle was, as some pre-children women's lives were...I laid in bed until I wanted to get up..if I wasn't in the mood for breakfast, well, forget it..lunch could be sometime. Either that or I would dig the leftovers from last night's rockin dinner and down them with a flat glass of wine. Let me say this, I'm not trying to be the spokesperson of how childless women live, so save yourself from composing the hate mail. I'm telling you that is how THIS momma lived.
Now, well, now life is different. Still a cynical Momma at heart..I'm always taken aback at these undying professions of love lured my way. Like, what could I have POSSIBLY done to deserve the love and devotion of this precious little girl?? Today, Doodle gave me a card she made in school. It said, in her handwriting, "Momma, I luv you becus you make my bos and you always make shur my nals ar painted...and u are so kool". AHHHH...Ladies, may you all be blessed with such accolades.
Hubby woke me with a happy plate breakfast in bed :).

And because Marine knows me...my coveted pair of Coach sunglasses...
Then, went to take me to get a proper Japanese pixie cut. Then...cho expensive sunglasses to shade these eyes from that there sun. I posted those pics mostly because I look SO MUCH like Momma.

Then tonight, he wanted to know what a queen would eat on her special day. Of course I told him, Ribs, BBQ Beans, and Potato Salad.

I ate like a queen..and I sat down in the floor and I blessed the good Lord for bringing me to this point in my life...with this man, and this little girl. We're so blessed y'all. We're so blessed.
