Mother’s Day and Doggie Farts
God knows I try to have my serious moments once in a while. Those priceless moments where I pay tribute to what wonderful kids I have, but when I have a doggie laying next to me with the worst case of gas EVER, it’s difficult to be sentimental. In fact, it’s taking everything I have to keep from running to the restroom with the worst case of heaves ever.
Kadi did such a wonderful job of putting her Mother’s Day into a photo journal and as much as I wish I had a day filled with family, love, spoiling and pictures to prove it - the fact is, I have nothing fancy, no pictures, but ahhh what a day.
Everyone tiptoed around the house and let me stay in bed until noon!
We had yummy hamburgers on the grill and hubby cooked them just the way *I* like them, not his way. I like mine just under charcoal briquette!
The kids gathered a basket of fresh veggies from the garden. We have some cold weather items coming on already. Green onions were such a treat yesterday.
It was rainy, gloomy and cold most of the day - but it sure made for the perfect day to stay indoors and force my family of men (or men wannabe’s) to watch a movie I want to watch. I chose Over Her Dead Body. I love that movie, but that’s another post for another time.
The evening ended on a familiar note with my husband and I watching on as the children delete their MySpace profiles and hand over their cell phones. Just wait until you read about that!
Ahh, the joys of motherhood.

Ugh! Dog farts are THE worst! Poor you! Next year, head for the day spa and let hubby deal with the teens. Maybe they can have dinner ready when you get home. Okay…now back to a little place we know as reality!
