Mom's Update II

Good things come to those who wait.

A wonderful card from H. with a sweet handwritten note.  And a box from a jeweler that contained five Alex and Ani bracelets to stack!  And just as I was recovering from those joy-filled things, his girlfriend came in with a huge flower bouquet AND a CHOCOLATE strawberry shortcake!!  Can't wait for dessert.

She is heading to be with her kids - they spent the day with her step mom who has no kids of her own and has always spent the day with her step grand kids - so they kept to tradition this year.

J. and I did a little gardening and gave Chloe a bath.  It's just past 3:30 and while I'm super hungry, I'm trying to resist.  We're having hot dogs and mac 'n cheese for dinner - and while that may not sound like the best Mom's day dinner, it's going to be delicious...and keeps us on our food budget and uses up some hot dogs that we need to use.

It's been a lovely day though it took until 3PM to have any contact at all with son #2 - but it was well worth the wait.

Thank you to my wonderful sons and son #2's girlfriend for spoiling me!

Our cleaning lady D. is here today - she wears earbuds and chats on the phone while she works.  She is the third cleaning 'person(s)'...
