MOMS DAY OUT!!!!


Can you hear the choir sing in the background. It was a little slice of Heaven today.

For my birthday all I wanted was a whole day of ME! No kids, no cleaning, just whatever I wanted. This wish was granted from mom and dad.

I cleaned the house like a mad woman Thursday night. I know myself. I would have wanted to get it clean on my day off.
The kids went to garden and work with Papa and Gaga all day.

I dropped the kids off just after 8. I came home, climbed back in bed and watched the today show. (well we don't have cable, so its our only half fuzzy channel.)

I checked email, eBay and so on.

I exercised and took the LONGEST peaceful shower EVER. No one came in to go potty, cry or tattle.

I GOT READY! I even put makeup on. I put jeans on. No yoga suit today.

I went to mall to use a bunch of gift cards. Of course I spent them all on the kids. I got my favorite sandwich for lunch and a diet coke. I bought Henry a bed frame. I came home and climbed in bed with my laptop. I paid bills, browsed, emailed, and so on.

I fell asleep. NO ONE woke me up, NO ONE destroyed the house. It was quiet, It was clean when I woke up. I laid for a little bit and watched some ridiculous people on Dr. Phil...again, half a channel.

I finally pulled myself out to go get the kids at my moms.

TODAY WAS HEAVEN!!!

Thanks, Mom and Dad.

Sound like you had a good day. And the shower thing... I can totally relate. Shaving my legs was monumental for me.
