I love any day, really, that involves giving me presents. For the record, today was quite fine. Jonathan gave me a bouquet of roses from our yard. Katie painted a picture of a giant sunflower for me, Ellie made me a beautiful picture at school and Maddie and Katie gave me the newest Nancy Drew game (don't judge! Nancy is super cool...I have learned many useful sleuthing skills from Nancy).
I wanted to make dinner for my mom but we had to take it to her house because Lani, my sister, doesn't travel. In the car on the way there we had a family meeting to go over what it means when I say "Grammy will not be cooking or cleaning tonight." My kids can be a little fuzzy on those kinds of things.
Speaking of which, thank you Marc for making sure that went according to plan. Eventually I sneaked back to my sisters room to snuggle her to sleep (heaven) and when I came out-viola! The kitchen was clean. There is hardly anything on earth I love more than clean things that I didn't clean.
Happy Mother's Day, then, to all the women who have mothered me. May all your clean dreams come true.
Clean things that I didn't clean....boy do I hear you...
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day!
Sounds like you had a great day...I know my sister appreciated your dinner.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun day! Happy Mother's Day. Tried to call you yesterday. Love ya!
ReplyDeleteThe sweetest part of my day was my two girls snuggling. I love you all so much - thanks!
ReplyDeleteMmm...lovely! We need to see pictures of Katie's painting--and Marc's too, for that matter.
ReplyDeleteI know, 'cause I'm so good about posting pictures of my house, right?
