I woke to the smell of cooking eggs and muffins.
“Don’t look, mama!!” is screamed at me.
Plates made of goofy writing and coffee cups with smiling pictures adhered carefully are as good as gift of gold.
The sun shines down on gleaming smiles and freshly scrubbed faces.
“He’s touching me!”
“She used my blue legos!”
The worst tragedies ever.
Clearly.
We manage lunch with grandmas that do not end in bloody messes.
Chicken! Corn-on-the-cob! Cole slaw! Maiming! Destruction!
Naptime finally arrives.
“I wanna have a lemonade stand!”
“I wanna play <insert gaming system here>!”
I run…RUN….one-legged….to the nap.
Night will come with bedtime and little dragging feet.
The kids hug so hard to avoid the bed. That’s alright, I’ll take advantage.
“I need a drink,” They declare a hundred times.
“i need to go potty,” They declare a hundred and one.
They finally sleep and I get to work. Yawning means work is over for the night.
I head my chair off to bed, and am surprised at what I find.
Kids comfy, cozy, sleeping in my bed.
Happy Mother’s Day to me.
Sounds like a perfect Mother’s Day to me. Hope you had a happy one!

Sam and Dusty were gone for mothers day, Lloyd and Alex slept in, when Alex got up at 1030 he said, oh I want to make you breakfast. Code for, “cook and clean it up mom” so we did. Lloyd got up at noon, and pretended not to notice it was mothers day. But Sam had left me a card that was awesome I shall have to scan it. It was totally you. Totally Mayhewba.
Takes a lot of Awesome and you has it.
Hehe, we refer to bedtime as the Battle of Stallingrad…’cause gawd do they ever stall. It sounds like your kids have it down to a science too.
