Mothering

I'm still working on Shane's wonky laptop so my blog is doing weird stuff with my pictures and text, so I'll do my best on this update. First up.....Buddy in all of his glorious abilities of avoidance, instead of completing school this week-he completed a 2,400 piece R2D2 instead. If I weren't his mother, I'd say great job. I am impressed at his avoidance skills though...if only he could make money with those avoidance skills.

On Saturday evening I went out with a few friends for a pre-mother's day celebration, there was food and an ocean involved, so of course it was more than fantastic.

For Mother's Day, I ordered up my own handwriting necklace. It's awesome and I love it. I also racked up some other amazing presents. Shane gave me a puzzle that I immediately put together. The boys asked me what I wanted to celebrate my special day, so I told them I wanted to go for a hike. Shane delivered, Buddy slept....Shane and I made it to the peak of Pu'u wa'a wa'a, which was beautiful as always. Then we attended a play that one of Buddy's friend's was in. I feel very misled by the invitation to a "play".....when I say play, I think what they meant to say was an afterschool recital put on by small out of tune children with expensive tickets. If that was what I was told, than I would say spot on!

Then the boys took me out to get Pho, which was delicious, and when we got home there was a beautiful flower arrangement on my doorstep from my dad!! Pretty awesome if you ask me!

So all in all a super fantastic, still missing my mother like crazy, day!
