Mother's Day

It is Mother's Day in Canada (and Switzerland) today.  Both Julia and Kelden worked hard at school to prepare me some gifts. Zack didn't do anything of course, but he still wanted to be included in the pictures.

 

Before going to church, we practised their songs for Sacrament meeting.

You might be wondering why Kelden wore his winter coat, but he needed it (outside).

We made it to church and Kelden actually sang this time (at least a little bit). They planted flowers during sharing time and answered a questionnaire about their moms. What surprised me most was what Julia and Kelden said to complete the sentence: My Mommy laughs when... I guess they have no idea about what makes me laugh. They both talked about cupcakes. Julia said I laugh when I see funny cupcakes and Kelden when I get to eat one. Someone must have been talking about cupcakes at that time! What did not surprise me was what they said to: I love when my Mom...hugs me (said Julia) eats muffin with me (said Kelden). Kelden also said his favorite thing to do with me is baking cookies (not surprising at all).
What made everybody laugh is how old Julia guessed I was. Kelden said I was 4 (maybe he didn't understand the question and just said his age). Julia said she didn't know and guess 55. I do look older than 35.

I guess I am wise beyond my years...
