Mother's Day

Actually, it wasn't too bad......it started with one of my kids bringing my husband and I tea and toast in bed. My poor hubby who has been fighting off a cold like virus all week, overdid it in yard work yesterday and couldn't get up this morning with a bed headache and stuffy nose so he stayed home from church. Two of the kids gave me cards and gifts they had made at school...one of the cards was actually bang on in describing me which I was surprised at because it came from my youngest. Apparently, her E.A. helped her ....I thought one of the lines was really good and it pleased me that it made an impression on her delayed, confused brain....she said, in describing me, 'she loves my daddy and all her children'....that about sums up my life.....and that is good.
The rest of the day went well....amazing blue (!!!) roses from my daughter and her boyfriend, really neat coasters from the boyfriend (he's a keeper!), a phone call from my son in the army, a beautiful card with lovely words from eldest new momma daughter, a visit and gift from the son who just got out of jail, and a phone call from eldest son, who's usually here but couldn't make it this time.......a takeout supper that I didn't have to cook...and the day was complete!
It's like the little plaque that Lauren gave Don and I yesterday ~
