Last week's Mother's Day was beautiful. My sister and I woke up early, signed our cards, and put mom's presents on display. We got her a bunch of stuff from a beauty supply store, a Chia herb garden, and some new planters.  We spent the morning outside in the backyard.  I fed squirrels; I observed  a snail.  It was so warm that I changed into one of my only strapless shirts.  Nothing short of a miracle. ♥ Mom started planting her herbs.  She put flowers from work in one of her new planters.  Her and I took a trip to Home Depot to look for impatients - her favorite flowers.  I stopped in a shop next to Home Depot and found some sweet midi sundresses for $4 each. I bought four.  I took the cats back outside in the evening, and had a no fuss dinner of leftovers.

That was it: calm and warm.  This year there's nothing else I could've asked for. I just wanted to record it.

get outside & breathe.

Taking one day at a time. Soaking up as much of the sun as possible. Lots of breathing. Repeat, repeat repeat lately. It's all been good: the sun, the weather, the almost-there summer...

My walk/jogs that have been mostly walks the past few weeks were upgraded to mostly jogging - with bits of running (body's now ready for it. Hooray!).

My cats are my heart and my children. I love them, and they so love me back. (Speaking of, did you see this?! Crazy!)

Plus, an awesomely beautiful Mother's Day spent gifting and planting and getting outside and finding a bunch of $4 sundresses...priceless for the soul.

Hoping a lot of your May's been made up of those two! ♥ 

The above stamps came in a digitial kit along with fun others from here.

my three best ladies

Mothers day

my grandma (mother's mom - left), my nana (dad's mom - middle), & mom

These are my best three ladies.  They are as gorgeous on the inside as they are on the outside and if I become half of the woman any three of them are, I'll be a happy human.

In honor of them and of Mother's Day, I constructed a list below of past posts featuring these beauties. Enjoy, and Happy Mother's Day! ♥ ♥ ♥
