Happy Birthday Mom
May. 24th, 2011 09:29 amI am taking a day off work to spend with my Mom on her 89th birthday. I didn't want her to be alone all day since it is the first birthday after my Dad died.
I was sort of ambivalent about taking the day off so close to the end of the school year. The kids are crazy and there is all sorts of end-of-year stuff to do. But when I woke up yesterday morning, my first thought was "at least I get tomorrow off."
So I get a break from the kids, and get to spend the afternoon with Mom. So two things to be thankful for today.
