Mother's Day

This past mother's day was difficult for us with the recent loss of Meemaw.  Travis and Essie did an amazing job making me feel special with breakfast in bed, flowers, bracelet charms, and a handprint frame. 

Essie wanted to paint her YaYa a picture to make her feel special on Mother's day...

That evening we all met at the Big Dam Bridge in Little Rock for Illuminate the Cure.  It's a lantern release for breast cancer.  Over 700 lanterns were released.  It was one of the most beautiful and moving moments I've ever experienced.  It was breathtaking and of course Essie thought it was just like the movie Tangled!
