One of my favorite mothers day was when the kids were little and made me breakfast I loved breakfast in bed with the burnt pancakes and the extra calcium from the shells in it was an interesting addition to the recipe.
The worst moms day I can remember was when we had empty nest and the kids were living away from the area we had to make some changes this was a time of growth for me; learning I was no longer the center of the universe for them a real wake up call! I was able to move on and let go. Teens do not always want to be hanging around mom all day long.
Now as a granny I have come to the place that I can enjoy the company of family, however I realize it is not just about me and they have other family members to consider mothers-in –law has come in to play. I just feel privileged and lucky to be able to enjoy their company for a few hours. We are having a B.B.Q. here some thing I’ve been wanting to do and it’s a great motivator for getting the kitchen spiffed up and counters cleared off. We are avoiding the moms day lunch crowds and will be enjoying the wonderful weather here. Taking a stroll round the yard to enjoy the flowers that are opening up for the event will be on our actives list today.
