Mother's Day 2014 #thankfulthree

Happy [American] Mother's Day from Norway!

1. I am thankful I have two lovable, rambunctious boys who call me mommy.
2. I'm so glad they have a dad who doesn't just tell them that a man should love, honor and respect his wife, but demonstrates it for them every single day.
3. I'm grateful for sweet gifts (including coffee, of course), a nice morning walk (we didn't let the drizzle stop us!), and lunch in the city.

I love these boys!
