Mother's Day started on Friday for me. Atticus' class had a Mother's Day Tea. The kids sang four songs; two in English and two in Mandarin. Then one by one, each child presented their mom with this lovely gift, said "Happy Mother's Day," and gave a big hug! After that, the moms stayed for about 20 more minutes and enjoyed pastries and fruit and juice. Wonderful!!!
On Saturday evening, Terry and Attie went Mother's Day shopping AND baked a cake. This picture was taken Sunday morning while Mommy slept in!!!! After reading the beautiful homemade cards from Attie and Terry, opening the gift and enjoying a piece of the prettiest and most delicious cake, we were off to Attie's performance...
Attie's school was invited to perform at this Asian Community Fair. We thought she was going to sing her Mother's Day songs and be done. I guess not enough of the after-school dance class showed up, so Attie was a stand in and she did amazing! She had never seen any of the movements and noone would have known! She followed along perfectly, well almost :0) That's her on the far left for those of you who haven't seen her in a while.
It was a very hot day so we hung out in the shade for a bit and then went home for lunch. The day ended with a trip to our favorite sushi place. It was a great Mother's Day weekend filled with lots of special gifts from my amazing husband and incredible daughter! P.S. Check out the Online Photo Gallery for more pics of the weekend, including the making of the cake and more of Attie in her tutu!
