My Mother's Day Dream

To all you moms out there,  

Happy almost Mother's Day!

Being a mom, means pouring yourself out day after day

Wiping noses, breathing in giggles, sacrificing your time for their time.

Cutting endless halves of pb&j, modeling forgiveness, and throwing in one more load of laundry.

Being a mom means forfeiting temporary sleep for Candy land dreams.

And, being a mom beckons taking some time out for you.

To recharge your battery.

Fill up your cup.

And remind you of what is important.

And frivolously fun...

For Mom's Day, here are some things that have caught my eye...

Gap sweater 

Gap Hoodie Cover-Up

 J. Crew striped dress

{are you seeing my striped obsession?}

This cute number from Banana Republic

A striped cardigan, Banana

 

A subscription to this magazine

 

A refill of my favorite perfume, Ralph Lauren Romance 

 

 Some rose bushes for our yard. I adore fresh picked flowers sprinkled throughout our home, and these roses are known for their strong, sweet fragrance. 

Heritage, an English rose.

Double Delight, a fragrant hybrid rose.

Radiant Perfume 

And what bouquet wouldn't look fab in these glass vases from One Kings Lane

 

Cute, outdoor pouf

 

 Dar dishtowels

from

 Crate & Barrel

 

And this cute sign for drying our suits!

But more than anything, I live for these moments ~

watching my boys throw seashells,

and being silly with their daddy.

Throw in my favorite chocolate craving

and evening margaritas with homegrown limes,

family time with Mana and Papa Shorty,

and Pops and Mimi

and you've got

one

blessed 

mom!
