I don't ask for "things"-I love a call that's just a call or a hug for no reason. My family really surprised me this Mother's Day. One day recently I told Ed that I wanted my flowers now, not when they go in an urn on my headstone. :) He must have taken that to heart because he sent me the most beautiful red rose arrangement. He sent lots of flowers when I was going through treatment but these really surprised me!
Ed called me outside this morning when he went to get the paper. This is what we saw. Cagney and Josh had painted the driveway with sidewalk chalk and it was beautiful!! I loved it. I wish it would stay forever!
They gave me this beautiful door mat to replace the Christmas one. I guess they thought it had been there long enough and that I needed a new one! :) Isn't this one pretty? Jennifer had given me some Bulldog flipflops earlier that were an early Mother's Day gift. On Friday she gave me a pink ribbon plant stake for the flower bed.
This morning Jody's family minus Bryden and Hayden (who I missed very much!!) were at church and they gave me something I almost bought the other day at the Toad House. A cool little bench that I put on the side porch that will have a plant shortly! Now if this wasn't enough--Ed took me fishing this afternoon. It was a beautiful day and I loved it because---
It might not be as big as Sam's but it was a good one for me!
Thank you Lord, for my family that loves me. Thank you for letting me be a Mom. Please watch over my family and keep them safe. Amen.
