Mother's Day
That crept up on me- I completely forgot until Saturday night when my dad called me to "remind" me about this BBQ they'd got planned. Remind me? Remind?! You need to tell me first if you expect me to remember. Seems my dear mother wanted all her children in one place for longer than five minutes. I didn't think it was possible, but we actually managed an hour or so before people had to leave.
And I'm never letting my dad near any open flame, grill, fire, etc, ever again! He decided to set fire to it... thankfully my brother is a fireman and the kids had been kept away, fortunately. He'll never live that one down though, but he took all the jokes in his stride- more or less.
Seems it was mothers day for me, too- I hadn't really thought of that (well, I hadn't considered doing anything about it) until Connie came over with the gift. That was unexpected but that's what made it great, so thank you for that.
My mom enjoyed Sunday, she always seems to perk up whenever we're all around. It was great to see her happy like that, even though it didn't last long.
