Mother's Day Celebration

I'm late posting these pictures, but I want to share them. I had a good time swarming shops with my little family on Sunday. I couldn't ask for a better day.

My day started off beautifully as Sean made me breakfast! Seriously he's the best and I couldn't ask for a better day well spent. He made me guacamole with breakfast potatoes, and grilled tofu! Super yummy and filling enough to take a wake around Santa Monica's, 3rd St. I didn't get to take as many pictures as I wanted to. I guess I just wasn't in the mood to bust out the camera and act like my tourist self.

We went to Barney's for lunch since I didn't want to eat at any of the other restaurants there. For some reason nothing else was appealing to me. We bought Ryu some new clothes since he's outgrown most of his or is about to. Seriously it's crazy how fast he's growing! I can't believe he's going to be four in July!









I swear he's so silly! Before heading home we stopped by Sean's parents. We had a good time and it's nice just being able to spend quality time with your family. Ryu had a blast there and he didn't even want to go home, poor thing was sad. It's okay though cause I bought him a toy that he wanted to play with when we got home, haha.

Happy Mother's Day!

I wanted to greet these two women in my life that I value the most. Without them I wouldn't be the person that I am today. Though we may bump heads, argue, disagree, and get frustrated each other I must say that over the course of 25 years of being around I have learned so much from them.

It is because of these two women that I have found courage to hold my head up high during the toughest and darkest times of my life. It is because of them that I have pushed myself to persevere for something greater. It is because of them that I have learned to be a compassionate, loving, and understanding mother to Ryu. If it wasn't for them I don't know where I would be today. I know that I should take more time to appreciate you both rather than just a phone call every other day or each week. I know that you both deserve more love, gifts, and hugs from your family all around. However, just know that on this end you are loved a lot.

Thank you to both of you for raising me to be the person I am today. I have never felt so much stronger and in charge of my own life up until now. I only wish to become a fraction of what you two women are combined. I want to be just as hardworking, caring, and strong for my family and for any other future children I may have.

I am not sure if you'll ever get on my blog to read this, but I love you both.
