Good Morning, Mothers Day

I mentioned in yesterday's post that I was treated to breakfast in bed for Mothers Day. I am so lucky to have girls that love to plan a "surprise" like that with Brian's help in the kitchen. He told me the night before to stay in bed in the morning because Cami had a secret plan. She rushed around with Kaylyn, scrambling eggs, making biscuits, arranging fruit, picking flowers while Brian whipped up his famous sausage and gravy. I waited in bed for a long time, "sleeping," so I would be surprised. Needless to say I didn't go hungry. I probably won't need to eat until the end of next week.

After I ate with an audience, which enjoyed being assured that each bite was as delicious as the last, they treated me to another surprise - pansies and herbs to be planted in the garden. I think I'll create a window box of herbs for our deck with my new basil, oregano, cilantro and parsley plants.

After all the fanfare I didn't have to do do any dishes or cleaning up in the kitchen! I am truly blessed by my loving family.
