Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to all my mommies and mommy friends. I know so many more mommies now that I am one, and I'm so grateful for that. There are so many great ones to know. But I won't go all sappy here, go to facebook if you want that.

It's been a nice Mothers Day so far. It kinda started yesterday when Mom and Ed tool Nathan for the rest of the afternoon and overnight. Leo and I drove home from Apex where we met up to enjoy Peak Fest (a great event if you live locally - go next year!), we decided on the fly what to do with the rest of the day. It was fun to think up things knowing we could do and all of it since Nathan was with his grandparents. Yipee! Of course we only had a few hours, not a few days. (Aahhh...there could be so much to do without a kid for several days!) So we took an impromptu trip to a local brewery for a quick beer (I love you Shotgun Betty) and then out for an early dinner. The rest of the night was not so adventurous but very relaxing as we got to actually sit without getting up every other minute for more milk or to clean up spilled milk.

This morning I got up early (but at my our leisure and not to the sound of a little boy banging on the door) and read a bit. Leo is making breakfast as we speak and I have a few more hours of quiet time before Nathan comes home. The silence is nice. But being with my boy later today be a wonderful gift today too. Can't wait to hug him.
