You know it doesnt take much

to make me happy. LOL. This weekend my husband and I are going out on a date for our anniversary/mother’s day (they are kinda close together this year). That does NOT happen often, but I’m happy when it does happen. It’s hard to believe that we’ve been married so long. I see our old photos and I want to scream, “Get out now! Run chile, run!!” Just kidding. It’s really cool this year cause we’re doing dinner and a movie and our first date was a movie. Our anniversaries have all been fun.

Today the kids and I are going to have lunch in the front yard. My son saw somebody else have a picnic in their front yard and now he wants to do it too. It’s a beautiful day for it. I hope everyone has a happy weekend. I miss my mom, but I KNOW I’m blessed to be able to call her up and wish her a happy day. I’m thankful for that.

Being a mother is not for punks, but I’m thankful for my babies. Even when they get into stuff. Even when they decide that today is the day they are going to test me. Even when I have to show them that Mommy don’t play that. Or clean up cuts and scrapes. Or other stuff. That other stuff is no joke, but I’m still thankful for having other stuff to clean up.
