Mother's Day

Mother's Day...a day we so look forward to each year. I mean, when else can we just completely refuse to HAVE to do anything we don't want? (or is that just me being selfish for a day? :}). My family took good care of me, making me breakfast & just getting to sleep in was a gift enough!! We fotunately got to spend the day with some of the family, and enjoy a killer Jazz Game! GO JAZZ!!! Always funner to watch the playoffs with others who get just as excited as you do about it all! (just have to watch the cussing a little more :}) TC cooked us up some good grub (he's a King at the BBQ!) & yes, I pigged out once again! Well, how exactly do you choose from chocolate cake or strawberry shortcake? Yea, see what I mean! You know you're ALWAYS in for fun & laughs when you're in for time with the family. Especially mine! Seriously.....I don't recall a time without! Doug & TC have just about heard ENOUGH of American Idol talk...I don't think they minded being outside by the BBQ just because of that! :}

All I can say is it sure is a good feeling to be a mom...despite how rough it can be, there's just nothing like it!!! It truly is a blessing that you just can't take for granted. I realize no one out there is the "Perfect Mom" (OK, I certainly know some who are 99.9% there; but...), all we can do is try our best & hope they survive (and we survive!). We can just hope that they grow up knowing how to be a good person & to be able to know what's really important in life!
