Happy Mother's Day to Me!

Sunday was Mothers Day.  I had a good one.  It could not be about food this year as I am "on a cleanse" this is a good thing.  Somehow, all the celebrations in my life usually revolve around food.  This has not been the case for the last month and a half and mother's day was no different.  It was a little hard for the kids to not be able to bring me breakfast in bed, Tessa, bless her heart, loves to do this, but she brought me coffee and it was... well ok, black and reheated, but nice never the less.

My mother's day gift was what I have been asking for for the last few years... an under the sink composter with a charcoal filter!!!  Yay!  Really, I'm serious Yay!  I love to compost, but I hate the reek of rotting food in plastic under my sink, so this is great!

The other thing we did to celebrate was meet my sister and mom (and families) at the Devonian Gardens.  Note to self: don't go to the Devonian Gardens before the plants in my own yard have bloomed as we will just be looking at the same thing as what is in my own yard.  Nothing was even green yet.  Dan asked "what did you expect?"  

Then Dan brought me to a green house.... it was a good day.  I am thankful for my mother, Dan's mother, and the fact that I am a mother.... we are blessed.
