It's Mothers Day and a fantastic time for me to remember that I couldn't be more blessed.
I have such a cool husband that truly adores me (cause I said so!), either that or he just wants to keep me from complaining. Although, he's super cute when he's truly trying to make me happy!
I have a daughter that is absolutely amazing. I know I keep saying that but she truly is! I mean don't get me wrong, I think it's her life's mission to make my life difficult! But then there's the times when she sneaks up behind me and hugs me real tight and tells me how much she loves me! And it's so easy to forget all of the other stuff!
With all that said, you should know that they are VERY alike in that they are SUPER selfish...but not for the Mothers Day/Birthday Weekend. Yesterday the 2 people that have mastered the "it's all about me" attitude gave me the freedom of choosing our day. It was a BLAST!!
Sabrina and I started our morning with a 2 mile walk to the community yard sale. It was very cool to just talk (and sometimes BEG her to talk to me...I could punch the person who invented headphones)! It was a beautiful day and if I'm remembering correctly, we made the entire trip without a single argument (this is HUGE).
Then we headed into Baltimore for a day at the Flowermart. We walked in the sun and rain to see vendors, shows, etc. It was beautiful down there...makes me kinda sad that we never go there. Bri and I got a few bracelets, Bob got a chocolate dipped belgian waffle on a stick (I KNOW!!!), and then we got some amazing Jalapeno infused olive oil. I can't wait to try that on...something!?!
(WOW...I'm getting old...I will be 34 tomorrow..but seriously!!!)
So normally, I'd be thinking well enjoy that ride cause your day of fun is over...but no, they let me continue to navigate! SO I took over, we headed to Whole Foods and Costco! LUCKY DAY!
In the evening, Bob went to a friends house to watch a fight...this is when the real fun began!
It was girls night!!
We went to the batting cages, played miniature golf (where Bri totally cheated), and had sugar free smoothies and bean dip for dinner! Then spent many hours sitting on the couch just talking about stuff...friends, boys, and life! It was the best day EVER!!!This day may not be all that impressive to some, I understand its not like receiving a trip to some exotic location, not a car (or scooter) wrapped in a huge red ribbon, there wasn't even a famous blue box involved. But it was just as special if not even more than all of those things to me! I love my family to pieces! The only thing that could have made this day any more special would have been to have more family around. I wish that I was closer (in location) to the rest of you!
May all of you have a best day ever in your future! Happy Mothers Day!
Much love!!
Nik
