CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES

I always have mixed emotions on Mother’s Day. It’s a beautiful day to celebrate and recognize all that moms do.

I’m so grateful to be a mother but always feel like there’s room for improvement on my part. My own mother is amazing and I can only hope to be half the mom she is.

But then I’m also very sensitive to those who are future moms or want to be moms and can’t. Then I think of those, like my nephew, who have moms in heaven watching over them. I’m torn the whole day.
 
My husband always spoils me on Mother’s Day. The best part is that he always cooks dinner. Steaks, crab cakes, Scalloped Potatoes, and these cheesecake stuffed strawberries!
