Mother's Day Tea

Yesterday was a big day for us. The one I will blog about today was Ryan's Mother's Day Tea. I don't know if you remember, but at his Christmas party he pretty much laid on the ground and cried during the singing. Yesterday was almost a repeat performance. Ryan gets so incredibly excited when he sees me that he cannot contain himself. He has to run up and hug me like I have been missing for years. It's sweet. But when you want your child to perform, it's frustrating. So, in mid-sprint to me I told him I wanted to see him sing. That is all it took. I apparently made him feel rejected. And he broke down. Mrs. Turner tried to get him to recover but could not. And I didn't want everyone else's song ruined so I let him come stand by me. With tears streamig down his face, he made small motions while the kids sang. At the end, they gave us carnations and led us to our tables. We ate cake together, opened gifts, etc. That part was great, other than Ryan swiping mommy's cake. haha (he already had eaten his) Anyway, here are some pics!
During story time...he finally noticed me!
