What Mother's Day Means to Me

(as told by J)

Mother's Day is letting Mommy sleep until after 8 and bringing her coffee in bed. It means holding a plant for our neighbor for "just a minute" before I tip it all over the floor. That was cool. It means eating my toothpaste that I have figured out how to unscrew while Mommy and Daddy are getting ready to go to the restaurant. Oh yeah, it also means begging daddy for a donut while Mommy is sleeping and eating it so I am even more excited and wired. Mommy says Daddy is a sucker.

Mother's Day means getting to go eat at a restaurant. Mother's Day means eating bagels at the restaurant. It means shouting, "Bagels, bagels, bagels!" at the top of my lungs. It means getting to run over to the waterfalls and squeal at the greatness of them. Why does everybody keep telling me, "No"? I just don't get it.

Let's see... what else about Mother's Day? There's ice cream before lunchtime. Oh, and cake, but mommy.... said.... NO CAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKE!!! So I had more bagels, bagels bagels and that was great! Playing with my best buddy Z at the restaurant was fun too! Don't we look all grown up?

Mother's Day is good for napping for a long time because everyone is in a food coma. For three hours.


Then getting to go to the airport to pick up Nummi!!! Hooray for Nummi! We have to pass a backhoe, a tractor and cars to get to the airport. Then we see Nummi! In the airport! And then we go to another restaurant. I have more ice cream and don't go to bed until 9:00. Mother's Day is lots of fun.

Happy Mother's Day (a few days late). Glad to hear J had such a great Mother's Day (he deserves it!). And it sounds like you had a pretty good time too. Don't forget to give J a donut on Father's Day so B can get an equally-excited celebration for his big day! :) Miss you all SO MUCH!
