Happy Mother's Day!

May 11, 2008 Barbara No comments

Morning all,

It’s Mom’s Day! Wheeee!

And let me tell you, my Mom’s Day will be utterly magnificent. Why, I hear you ask?

Couple of reasons. One, I communicated effectively just what I wanted for Mom’s Day – appreciation! I have no need of gifts; I already have everything I want. So my kids wrote up letters/poems/etc. about how they feel about me (one kid even designed an entire book at school), my husband bought the most PERFECT card imaginable:

“Let’s celebrate Mother’s Day by taking the kids to the sitter and coming back to the bedroom for an evening of passion!…..or maybe just a nap. “

Given the insane hours I’ve been keeping, that was the best (most truthful!) card I could imagine!! It really brightened my day.

I took all the things my kids made and clipped them to my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gi that’s currently decorating my office (you can learn about that here) . And let me tell you – it really makes me smile deep inside whenever I look at it.

In other news, it’s Mother’s Day! I wrote a funny take and titled it

The 12 Days of Mother’s Day
