at least I felt like it when the kids were little.
Denim on denim…so cool back then.
This choked me up…
Nancy from Always in a Southern State of Mind
reminds us to live in the present with
Planning something special for Mother’s Day?
I set the table, but I’m not cooking 🙂
Both my children are with me this year.
They gave me this charming bouquet.
Now my college boy wants me to play “Drinking Backgammon” with him.
I remember when we put Star Wars Legos together…this may be more fun.
In case you missed it…
check out Debbie’s Spring Beach House below.
Tell your mother you love her!

Lovely. Love your bouquet. One of my sons is home from college and I feel like I just keep filling my fridge. Love having him home – off to the grocery. That's my game I am playing!

Happy Mother's Day!
I enjoyed mine really well.
Being a mom may be hard and demanding but it has its perks too
and it is so fulfilling.
