Happiest of Mother's Days

What a happy day it was here at the Topel Homestead. A day spent with Dan's mom, the mother of our nephew(Dan's sister, Pam), my mom, and my Grandma Vitense, it was memorable. The kids showered me with gifts they made with so much effort and love. Mallory has been extra "lovey" the past few days, taking time to massage my shoulders and give me lots of X's and O's.

The wedding we went to was so much fun for all of us. We bowled, danced, visited, and ate...boy did we eat! Straight from my upcoming favorite...can you say, Yummo!

A busy week coming up: Monday is Mallory's last dance class of this school year. Wednesday night, Christian will have his 2nd T-ball practice (he's pretty pumped and focused on T-ball!!). Thursday is Mallory's field trip to one of our family favorites-Aztalan, AND a Spring Concert at St. Paul's at 6:30 when Mallory will be singing in the Cherub Choir. Friday, we all fall down. Saturday is the rehearsal for the dance and Sunday (drum roll, please) is Mallory's big production in Whitewater. Usda! Gotta love the end of the school year!

Just want to wish all of you Mom's a Happy Mother's Day! I've been very blessed with so many role models in my life to help me be the mom I am and to all of you, I am thankful!

25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days
to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her
tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat
the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her
husband also, and he praises her:
29 "Many women do noble things, but you
surpass them all."
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a
woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31 Give her the reward she has
earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
Proverbs 31:25-31
