Mother's Day
Mother's Day. A day all the kids plan for, waiting with eager expectation to see a look of surprise or pleasure when you present Mom with a special something just for her. And then to see that smile on her face. It's worth all the rushing around last minute to make sure everything is prepared. It's worth all the trouble you took to keep a secret from a Mom who knows everything that goes on. It's worth any extra trouble it takes you to word your sentences carefully, keeping her in the dark as to who that new outfit is for. ("I never actually said it was for me.") It's worth the extra trip to town. It's worth all of it just to see her pleasure.

    A wonderful day it was too!
    Enjoying my children and their sweet gifts. (a new outfit)
    Two beautiful azaleas. These are not planted yet. We are working on that, possibly today.
    A lemon pie topped off a wonderful dinner cooked by my daughter!
    I can't believe she made that outfit without me knowing it was for me. :) Thank you to my children. I am grateful for you all.
    I love you.
    Mom

The ShugaBowl
Sounds like some kind of sports thing, but in reality, the ShugaBowl is just a little hideaway for me, Sugarcube herself, to let loose my thoughts and occasional creativeness.
