Mother’s Day was a great day to lounge around. I spent the morning upstairs and out of the way as my three sons made breakfast for me. The smell of bacon, spreading throughout the house, was delightful. I kept busy with the task of revamping YaYa’s blog.
I was called downstairs for breakfast after a while. DD kept lighting small fires on the stovetop with the bacon grease. He seemed a little too experienced at putting them out (as if they’d been popping up all morning). It’s a wonder that he didn’t set the smoke detector/house alarm off. I’d better check the battery.
I was treated to eggs, english muffins, bacon and a nice glass of orange juice. I even had a stack of presents on the table.
My gifts included:
* Two latte glasses.
* A new pair of running shorts.
* and – what every Mother should have – a Jelly Belly dispenser.
I was so delighted with my gifts that I gave the boys a visit to see Spiderman 3.
I hope that everyone else also had a wonderful Mother’s Day.

Love,

Glad you had a great Mother’s Day. The funnest for me is watching the kids try and make it special by doing things for their mother. I still need to help them since they are not old enough but the intentions are priceless!

Happy Mother’s Day, Juls! I wish I had a Jelly Belly dispenser. I wonder if I can mount one on my bike :-)

I love the Jelly Belly dispenser, even though the presents are sweet I get a little nervous opening gifts from the kids; especially the ones they expect you to wear!
Anne says
Catching up here. Agree that the Jelly Belly dispenser is a truly sweet gift. Those kids are smart ones, aren’t they.
