Mother's Day 2013

What I wanted:

• rest & sleep
• feeling like I make a difference in my Church callings
• Good food
• A little exercise
• time with family, friends, and laughter

What I got:

• I slept in and got a nap in after church (never happens!)
• A young girl who hasn't been to church in over a year came today (on no account of my own, beyond my being mindful of her and praying on her behalf...still, it's something)
• Eggs Benedict in Bed, Russ' Split Pea Soup for Lunch, and the Spanglish sandwich for Dinner. (plus blue bell ice cream!)
• Family walk for a mile and a half! Better than nuttin' on Sunday
• Dinner with my family and friends, laughing together when one of the babies licked a chip off the ground where the dog had just licked. 

So perfect. Finishing it off with an episode of Fringe.

Mother's Day!

For Mother's day I wanted two things:

First, I wanted Phoenix to not cry when I led the music in church. She was good and just slept.

Second, the sandwich from the movie "Spanglish" (the only great part of that movie).
It was awesome:
