Mother’s Day

My Mother’s Day was filled with all sorts of little blessings:  phone calls to my own mother and mother-in-law, FOUR vases of flowers (one from EACH kidlet), bagel sandwiches for lunch at Bixby’s after church (I always love not having to cook after we get home from church) a collection of Smart Wool socks (I love those socks) a ginormous afternoon nap on the couch, a walk for just Squirmy and me (he loved it), the joyful sounds of big kidlets outside playing all afternoon, noodles and cheese with hamburger for supper (my favorite) an ice cream treat in the middle of the afternoon while the kids were resting, kidlet reading time on the couch, and an evening book read by my lonesome self.  Ahhh!  It was great.  Plus, the most surprising and wonderful part:  my husband cleaned up our bedroom while I was napping.
