Mother's Day Tea

The tradition at Abby's school is for all the 1st grade classes to host a Mother's Day Tea. Brian worked from home today to watch Emma so that I could go for this hour long event. All the mothers of Abby's 22 classmates attended, which is pretty amazing that everyone was able to come. The students began by meeting their mothers at the door and then taking them to their seats and serving them pink lemonade. Her teacher read a very special poem (the kleenex was being passed around), and the kids each told why his/her mother is special. They also had a slide show of all the students' drawings of their mothers. We were served breakfast by our children as well and given a red rose. It was a very special day. My little girl is growing up way too fast!
