I slept in until 10 ~ I needed it! Even when the door opened and my husband walked in, holding Maverick, balancing a tray and directing the other 5 I could barely open my eyes. Exhausted wasn't even the right word. But, there they were... all smiles and proud of their breakfast in bed. Two pieces of peanut butter toast, chocolate chip waffles, oatmeal, strawberries, a granola bar, and a big glass of juice. So I rearranged the pillows and sat up and rubbed the very reluctant sleep out of my eyes and dug in. They all helped though. Mitchell gave me a cute "MOM" foam shape magnet with his photo in the "O" and all wonderful mom sayings all around on it. He also had a card that he made that was gushy and lovey and I will keep forever. Marina gave me a marigold planted in a milk carton and a homemade card that we giggled over because in one of the many "Happy Mother's Day" she accidentally wrote "Happy Motor Day". We laughed thinking about being nice to your cars for the day. Mike and the kids got me a spa certificate for fingers, toes & a 60 minute massage. "A Day Away" it says. How luxurious. Food eaten, off they went for showers and a clean up run through the house. I love Mother's Day... full of flowery good stuff and making mom's feel like the Queen's they Are. Honestly, I think we should have one a month!
Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's in this World ~ Without us, life just doesn't run like it should.
