My Amazing Mother's Day!

I had such a wonderful first Mother's Day. Gusti definitely deserves a lot of credit for making me feel so special. My celebration actually began the day before, a Mother's Day weekend as it were. The three of us traveled to SF, ate a "linner" (lunch-dinner) and shopped for a Mother's Day outfit for me at a cute boutique in Noe Valley. Of course the day would not be complete without shopping for a cute outfit for Zane too, and we found a few chic items for him also. I love to shop!

On Sunday I woke up to Gusti giving me the cutest picture of Zane holding the "Happy Mother's Day" card posted on Zane's site. I received two presents. First, chocolate covered cherry truffles (my favorite from Joseph Schmidt) and a second one carried over to me by my son, a pair of classic Sapphire solitaire earrings. These are the prettiest blue Sapphires I have ever seen and they match my son's eyes. Plus they are blue for a boy. I love them! And they are perfect because Zane keeps grabbing anything he can hold onto... my hair, necklaces, earrings... yikes!

That afternoon, we traveled back to SF and had lunch with Harriet (her first Grandmother's Day). A little more shopping and lots of Zane smiles later our day ended. Very nice to say the least. Thanks to both Gus and Zane for making my day so special!

P.S. A few of you sent me a Mother's Day card to celebrate my first occasion. That was so sweet! I would have never thought about doing that for any of my girlfriends and it was so nice to receive. =) Thank you!

Best Morning Ever!


Zane learned how to give kisses and he decided to give tons to Mommy today. I have never had such an amazing morning! Zane was precious and as I laughed in glee he continually bombarded me with his love. Zane is starting to explore the world with his mouth, typical at this age. In reality he probably wanted to explore mommy's face, but I will be happily ignorant in thinking that he showered me with kisses.

Looking forward to my first Mother's Day!
