Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, grandmas, aunts and those who fill the role of mom to people in their lives.
I’m sitting here in my bedroom, watching TV, surfing the internet, playing mindless computer games and catching up on my magazines, while my children are keeping themselves occupied elsewhere. I told them they’re free to come in and visit me anytime they want, but so far, they’ve been too busy, I guess. At least the squabbling seems to be at a minimum.
I received one of the items on my wish list for Mother’s Day — a toothpaste dispenser! We’ll see if it actually makes my life any easier. I also got 3 red roses, potpourri in a basket and a big candle, as well as homemade cards from each of my kids. All in all, a very nice day.
The only shadow on today is the fact that my kids’ grandpa, my former father-in-law, had to be flown to Sioux Falls early this morning for emergency surgery. Thankfully the surgery went well and, barring any complications, he will be fine.
How about you? How was your Mother’s Day?
