Mom's Day

at
The girls and I are enjoying a lazy Saturday morning. We will also be heading to the gym for some swim time today. They need to get back to fine swimming form for the summer. Tomorrow, we're meeting with my mom and sister for a homecooked Mother's day brunch. We're taking it easy. That is SO fine with me.

It is fun to look back over the Mother's Day posts from last year and the year prior. I like reading about what we did, what my girls did to celebrate with me and where I was in my life.

I had to laugh at the little "about my mom" booklets that my daughters made at school this year, completely separate from each other. Both of them said Mommy is happy when they clean up after themselves and that Mommy spends most of her time doing laundry.

*sigh*

Ain't it the truth?

I hope that overall, they see the fun we have in our lives beyond the clean house I wish to have.

And on the topic of self-service, I am having my cleaning lady come today so that I won't have to clean my house. Yay me!

I hope all of my mommy bloggy friends out there are having a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. Ya'll all (yes that's a real term) remember your own Mom's this weekend, mmmkay?

Much love to all of you.

  7. I often wonder how much the kids will remember of our good times. I think we have enough. We enough manage to make the ordinary nights less mundane.

    Don't worry. As they age, they'll see.

  8. I sooo miss the days of the homemade cards and books celebrating, uh, me that teachers had (OK, forced) The Kid make on Mom's Day.

    But The Kid spent some time hanging with me; when they're teens, that's a lot!

    Hope you had a great one. The clean house? Bonus!

  9. ah, i am dirt poor but there are two indulgences that i refuse to let go of: 1) cab rides instead of transit in the mornings taking the kids to school, and 2) the weekly visit from my domestic goddess friend who makes my floors sparkle and tidies up our place. Happy belated mommy day tee.
