Happy Moco Mommy's Day!

This Mothers Day comes with a little bit of an attitude. I have been huffing and puffing all week because my hubby is out of town this weekend. Most Mothers Days I try to take advantage and let Pablo take care of the girls, the cooking, and the housework. This year he is off on a much needed getaway for his friend who is getting married next week (a nicer way of saying a bachelor party! Haha). With young, single, and childless men planning a weekend away, this particular weekend was no big for them. But for me, it was a little more inconvenient. Not having Pablo here this morning makes Mothers Day just like any other day for me. Which includes an early morning, fetching breakfast, wiping butts, and all that comes with parenting.  

But this morning. I had an "ah ha" moment. This morning my little Gabi said, "I have the mocos, mommy." Picked her nose. Then said, "Here are my mocos, mommy". If you know what mocos are then you know that I was handed a nice little green slimy gift from the nose....right in my hand.  That was it. That's all it took for me to realize how much I love being a mom. How little I care about holding a booger, and how it's second nature to accept one when its handed to me. I'm blessed. So very lucky. Not everyone gets to experience the ups and downs of motherhood. I'm well aware of the fact that I'm blessed times three, with healthy beautiful girls. 

So, the attitude stops here. Mother's Day in itself is the gift. Being able to say Im a mom today is the gift. Although the flowers and cards are nice. The fact that I am a mother is special, even if I don't do anything special today. 

Happy Moco Mommy's Day! I hope you get a booger! It was the best gift ever.
