I loved them and Cody painted them all on his own. I had seen the canvases at his mom’s house and I asked him if he knew what she was painting. He told me something beachy..haha. So, I had no clue what they really were. On Sunday’s Cody always gets up with Eli and goes up to his mom’s house for breakfast while I sleep in. So while they were up there they did Eli’s handprints and one of Cody’s. I put mine on when he gave them to me. I already know where I’m going to put them..I’m just waiting on Cody to do it because there’s no way I’d get them straight.
We got ready and went to church. They always have something for the youngest mother and oldest grandmother. I was the youngest mother there and got $5. After church we went to Sonic for lunch then to my mom’s house. Later we had to go to Home Depot to get a new mailbox since ours didn’t make it through the storm. As soon as I got out of the car a lady pulled up and asked if she could ask me something. Cody was getting Eli out of the car and I walked a little closer. She told me that she was trying to get to the Children’s Hospital in Birmingham, that someone had told her how to get there and she thought she could figure it out, but she only had 3 gallons of gas. She asked if I knew of anyway for her to get some gas, so I gave her the cash that we had...the $5 that I had got at church.
I forgot to get any pictures of me and Eli. I'm always the one taking them.
Last Mother’s day we were still in Tuscaloosa and I had only known I was pregnant for a little over a month, but it was a special day too. I had no clue yet what being a mom meant, but I knew I couldn’t wait to be one. Eli is such a blessing and I am so glad that I get to be his mom.
