Mother's Day may have been over a month ago BUT it was a gift to my heart and a SWEET time with my men! Rance had asked me a few weeks prior to Mother's Day if I had any requests. My love language, as in the way I feel MOST loved, is through quality time and acts of service. As much as gifts are fun, I would pick quality time with Rance and Jayden over gifts any day! While most would probably think that quality time would be easier being in ministry, that is exactly opposite of the case. Maybe that is why I cherish quality time in an entirely new way when it does happen these days!?!?!
We spent the morning in Bryson City on Deep Creek enjoying the creek, hiking to waterfalls, and letting Jayden run wild!
Then we enjoyed lunch and a TREAT as Jayden would say!
We also got to spend time with Rance's mom, sister, and her family!
Sunday after church, we attempted to get a family photo (but Jayden almost always falls asleep on the way home from church!)...
Jayden made his first craft/handprint at church for me that morning and I may have got teary!
Being a mom is one of the hardest jobs I have ever had yet one of the jobs I love the absolute most! Rance wood burned Proverbs 6:20-22 on a block of wood for me just as an encouragement from day to day!
We hit up the pool Sunday afternoon for a couple of hours after Jayden's nap (his first time in the pool this year) and we quickly realized he has absolutely no fear of water!
Quality time - best gift I could have received!
