Here's to you...
The three of us we snuggled up on the couch last night, watching Eragon. We were all pretty darned tired. So the snuggle time was a welcome part of the day. It'd been a good day, early morning to find Franktown where The Boy has a PB 1K, and a had PB 15K (it's the time I've raced that distance.) Then we went to the Park up the road where we celebrated the Tulip Festival. Today we'll hit Artspark. (I love this neighbourhood.)
It's quite the fun little family unit we have here. I always knew I would love my child. But you know, I really like him as well. He's a laid back roll with it sort of kid, who is not afraid to throw his arms around you and tell you he loves you. Lately, he's begun teasing us back. "Mom, you know that's bad parenting." (I was making sure he was brushing his teeth.) Cheeky monkey. (Sometime you get mooned when you tell him that.) And he is really excited about the road trip this August. We'll explore the world. Take it on together. And I know it won't always be like this.
So for mothers' day, I'm going to spend some time with The Boy and The Man and enjoy to wonder that is family life.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY chica!!! Sounds like you've got one heck of a son ;-)

Hope you had a lovely Mother's Day. I really like my boy too (as well as loving him.) He is fun just to hang out with. I hope the friendship we have continues into his teenage years.
