And maybe take a nap. And then crawl in bed early and watch mindless TV. Can you tell I'm tired? All The Time. :) Darcie, I hope you have a great day tomorrow!

I think I am just going to be so thankful to be whole, so thankful that my children are all healthy. The bickering, and the teasing and the dirty socks on the floor...they are all so trivial, and I don't think they are going to bother me at all tomorrow. I hope I hear little footsteps at 7:00am and I hope four smiling children wake me from sleep with hugs and kisses. I can't wait to see what they've made me in school...they've alluded to the surprises. I hope we get to go flower shopping...that was the plan but it's been raining for two days there is more rain to come. And I hope my husband will make dinner--he always does on Mother's Day. I hope most of all that I can truly understand how lucky, how blessed, I am. But can you ever really, really appreciate what you have until it is gone? It has been a hard week here.

Why a day early? In-laws are crashing the actual day. yeah. So anyway - sleep late, breakfast served by the most beautiful little waitresses. I don't do breakfast in bed. I already have my personal gift from them - they painted me a wooden art thing for my wall. :) Anxious to see the cards though. Then Annie, Catie and I are going to Lowe's to build Memory Boxes (LOVE their kids projects!), then all of us are off to a local church's spring festival. Chris will grill out tomorrow night, probably tuna, and he'll make me a cosmo or two. I can't wait! Happy Mother's Day everyone! My perfect Mother’s Day will be tomorrow. Why a day early?

Sounds feasible! BTW: I found you on Mama Speaks. You beat me for the "job" and I must admit that you're a better writer, so I see why you were chosen.

Of course all the while the kidos are well behaved and calm and only ask daddy for things they need. How would it be!
