Mother's Day 2013

I love Mother's Day.

The kids try not to fight.

They feed me breakfast in bed. It is just so much fun to have everyone eating breakfast in our big bed. They are so big now it is hard for 5 people to fit around a tiny tray of food. Then I receive these awesome cards that make me cry EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Who cares that I have a messy kitchen to clean up later. I just love being a mom!!!!

Vern was extra sweet to me today. He tried to be extra helpful. He mowed the lawn as we told him to. (Usually he races round the yard like it is a racetrack.)

The weather was absolutely perfect.

I planted flowers.

I got to talk to both of my moms. They each had good days too.

It was a good day to be alive.

Happy Birthday, I think...

So Vern made me a nice homemade card. I scanned a photo of page one below.

I thought this was a nice card until someone at work told me Stewie, the guy he drew, is always trying to kill his mother. EEEEK!

Then we get to page 2. This page concerned me so I didn't take a scan of it. Vern drew a swastika flag and a "dude" with a swastika arm band!!!!

I asked why he would draw this and give it to me for my birthday card. His response, "Oh I was bored and just felt like it."

I'm a little bit scared to go to sleep tonight...Maybe I will lock my door! :-)
