^^Morning snugglefest!!
Mazen and I shared lots of love on Mother’s Day weekend! We started with The Land Before Time movie. I couldn’t take it when the mom died. We held hands while we watched though, so that was nice 🙂
And then on Friday night I watched the movie Room. I read the book a few years ago (I think when I was pregnant?) and just recently found out there was a movie too. HEART-WRENCHING story!! There are many themes, but I think the biggest is the bond between mother and child, so it was a good one to watch this weekend.
M and I played lots of Lego:
Which most often meant that I was putting things back together when he broke them apart! A true test of mom’s brain power 😉
I made these panko tofu sticks for dinner on Friday – recipe to come!!!
I thought they were fabulous, and he thought they were so-so. I was just happy that he tried them!
On Saturday morning I went to athletic conditioning and did a bunch of chores around the house. Plus, I spent a few hours working in the afternoon. A glass of wine made that extra nice!
On Sunday morning we had our soccer playoffs at 9am, so I was up early, drinking coffee and eating toast before heading to the field. We won 8-1 (our biggest win of the season!) and I scored a goal too. Exciting stuff!
I ate a huge quesadilla to refuel before my afternoon women’s game.
My women’s game was a tie (4:4) but I scored TWO goals in that one! Three goals in one day is definitely my all-time record!!
I went straight from the game downtown to meet up with my main squeeze!!
We were at Skybar for a Mother’s Day event and had some yummy Caribbean food and wine with other families.
M surprised me by requesting two pieces of kale!!!!
And he loved smashing the balloons!
I love him!!
I hope you all had wonderful weekends too!

My ex-husband and I rediscovered our children since we separated and we are so full of love for them! It seems the stress we felt as a couple prevented us from truly enjoying parenthood. Thought I’d share as your post reminded me of that!
KathEats says
Totally agree with this feeling!

I love crispy tofu! I made some where I diced he tofu up a little smaller and put some chipotle seasoning in it; then I made some tangy slaw and had vegetarian “fish” tacos 🙂
Amanda says
I love the pic of him trying the tofu sticks! My son makes the same face when trying new things, lol!!
On another note, I noticed that some of these pics are from your phone. They seem really clear. What kind of phone do you use?
