I came home from work this morning to my teen, and tween still in bed sleeping soundly. My youngest was in the kitchen with my husband, hands full of cocoa pops cereal, arguing that if she eats it dry out of a ziplock bag she can eat it on the couch. It's true; I let her do that occasionally when we just want to snuggle in the mornings.
I walked upstairs and woke my eldest child saying "Morning Tay Tay! Come make me breakfast in bed", then went to my middle daughter's room to find her laying in bed playing video games. I swear she should've been a boy!
We all came downstairs and made breakfast together, and it was delicious. Eggs Benedict is one of my favorite breakfast meals, and that's what I had. They sat at the kitchen table and made me hand-made cards (my favorite) and surprised me with them just a moment ago. Now we are snuggled on the couch watching episodes from my Will and Grace boxed series set, and life is good.
The greatest gift for me on Mother's Day is knowing that I have three beautiful daughters that love me very much, and loving them back more than anything in the world.
Happy Mother's Day for all the mum's and mom's out there.

Thanks for the well wishes. It was a quiet day, a day that allowed my family to return to their home, one of the lucky families during a time of tragedy for others.
ReplyDeleteI, too, love eggs Benedict, but don't have the rug crawlers around home these days and didn't feel like dressing up and going out. I indulged in a waffle drenched in butter and sugar-free syrup, an okay substitute.
