Mother’s Day
…and what a great day it was. I got breakfast in bed, flowers…the whole nine yards. Cali made me a picture at school with the following poem:
There are always so many of my fingerprints to see,
On the furniture and walls from stick, grubby me.
But if you stop and think awhile,
You’ll see I’m growing fast.
Those little handprints will disappear,
You can’t bring back the past.
So here’s a small reminder,
To keep, NOT to throw away.
Of how those tiny hands once looked
To make you smile one day.
Then….I got a new toy. A Zen. And it’s MINE. Hands off to everyone else.
After lazing about for most of the afternoon, we made homeade ice-cream. Memama’s recipe…..it’s better than ice-cream. It’s almost custard-ish. I’m proud to be Cali’s Mommy. Love you, midget! Thanks for such a great day.
