Fashion and Fun after Fifty

I hope and pray that all the Mothers had as nice of a day spent with their children as I did.  My Mother’s Day was the fulfillment of one of those “I can’t wait till they grow up and …. “

“I can’t wait till they grow up and talk…I can’t wait till they grow up and are potty trained..I can’t wait till they grow up and walk… I can’t wait till they grow up and go to school…get a job…move out…etc.  My “I can’t wait” was having them drive me to lunch and paying for it tip and all!

Although there are times that I long for my sons to be toddlers again, it’s a beautiful thing when they are old enough to appreciate  and show

how much they care without coaxing.  I was very surprised when hubby told me that the boys planned on taking me out for lunch and it was a beautiful day with just the two of them.  Afterwards we stopped at Lowes to get flowers and of course to Goodwill for the Mother’s Day $5 off $20 sale.
