This is my first year celebrating Mother’s Day as a mom.
How crazy is that?!
Ok, so I know a lot of you who read this (or at least comment) are moms yourself so it probably isn’t that crazy ’cause you’ve been doing this for years. But think back to that first time celebrating this holiday as a mom yourself. What was it like? (I bet it was a little crazy.) Did you do anything special?
Last year when I found out I was pregnant my mom made sure I knew we would all be celebrating Mother’s Day together this year. Since my mom grew up near where I curently live and needs her dose of Boston, we’ll be skipping the fancy brunches and heading downtown to and hitting up the famous Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market to watch the street performers and eat tasty New Englandy food.
In addition to spending time with family, I’m really looking forward to starting the day sleeping in. Next Saturday night will actually be my first night away from Eve (!!) which I’ll admit, I’m really looking forward to (I love my baby, but mama’s got to have a night where she gets to sleep past 5:00 am!). I’m sure I will miss her like crazy, though!
With Mother’s Day around the corner, it only seemed appropriate to feature some awesome finds for Mother’s Day. Ladies, you may want to send the link for this post to your family members to give them a friendly reminder!
