Mother's Day

Now I have no idea why any mom wouldn't be excited to celebrate Mother's Day. I have often heard it reminds you of what a crappy mom you are. Lucky for me I guess that I am not. I for one love it, and this year was reminded of how great of a mother I am. Jason made me dinner, and it was delicious. Abi gave me a beautiful card that was a flower. My friend Lisa gave me a box of chocolate covered strawberries from V's chocolate that were divine. Even my little brother Parker got me a mother's day gift, (I am still trying to decide if he has a mysterious bug and is dying or if he ruined something of mine...jk I love it Parker, and will use it all the time) But as if all that didn't make me feel like a great person and mother, Olivia made me a cute little emblem of her love...She made me a book that I am positive that her teacher at school and classmates must think I am Mother of the Year.
That is right...I am a professional sleeper. I am not sure what other kids wrote, but I am sure their mothers aren't near as fascinating. Ironically, I made a book for my mom this year with my siblings, and I think my pages are a little nicer and fitting. You be the judge...Who is the better daughter?...Olivia or me?...j/k

Your are very lucky not to be a crappy mom. In fact, I've learned a lot of how not to be crappy from you.

Whit,
My favorite gift on Mother's Day was the chocolate covered strawberries that Lisa gave me as well. I hope that you didn't eat them all. I ate all but 3 and I got really sick. They sure were delightful.
Are we on for Friday? Let's do it at my house. Elle is out of school that day.

I think Livy's picture is excellent! Good grief for someone that runs 20 miles for training then 26.2 at a marathon, no wonder you like to sleep. But the best part is she drew you with a big smile on your face. Good stuff going on in this blog Whit. Love your humor.
