Happy Mother's Day!

I am filled beyond capacity with homemade pancakes and bacon. My son gave me a necklace with a pendant made, with his grandmother's help, from a surprisingly pretty rock he found on the beach. I love my family.

There's a new Wonderland up, as of Friday.

Also, Schmutzie has had some devastating news. She needs all the love the Internet has to offer.

Finally, we have a new addition to the family. Pictures will be coming, soon.

the pendants and necklaces (and lanyards) of preschool are definitely awesome. I treasure every one of mine.

I wept.

Alice, it only gets better and better.

Happy Mother's Day. I'd better get used to telling you that if Beth and Henry are to be married.

I said this two posts ago as well, Happy Mother's Day! Oh, and I got a t-shirt from my husband that reads "Moms. They're like Dads, only smarter"-ha!

You've been listed as a crush on my blogroll forever. Or six months. You are the only blog my mom reads apart from my own and my grandmother has clicked your way a few times. Your blog has cured our awkward silences, so I'm glad you do it.

Happy Mother's Day, Alice.

Like you I was filled with pancakes and bacon -- quel coincidence! Naturally the day could only devolve from there.

But I did get a yoga card as a prez, which for this lassie whose c-sectioned tummy has not seen one ounce of exercise in the 3 years since (nor much before) is something much needed. The problem: while engaged in my first yoga class in yonks, enjoying gentle sounds of birds atwitter and ocean waves...our sweet campy instructor interrupting with the odd gentle chiming of a bell and soft, bad poetry...my stomach growled and echoed loudly through the cavernous room. It was the yummy memory of those morning pancakes. Yes, I go to yoga, but all I can think of is food.

Moms' Day rocks. Om shanti, ladies.
