Mother's Day Gifts... *3*

[Toby's my baby]

Well, they got my something "from my dogs" for Mother's Day. Christina used her last $10 from allowance to pay to make this at school:

It says To: Mommy with dog bones all over it.

They also go me a new purse and wrote in the card "Mommy, we got you a new purse because it looks like we chewed on the other one" (and it's so true because my other one looks like a rag now!)

Christina comes to work with her mom in the morning because we go into work at 5am and Christina has school at 8am. So Laurie leaves at 8 drops her off and comes back.

Christina has a bit of trouble in school, acting out. I think it's because she gets bored. All last week before she left for school I promised her a few things that if she came home with a good report, she recieve these things.

Most of them were hanging out with Kiara and I, spending the night (which she did Friday night), coming over to swim, etc.

She came home everyday with a good report from her teacher and has been acting wonderfully at home.


Laurie is now calling me her godmother.

Gosh Kay, not only are you a good mommy to your dogs, but sounds like your going to be a good mommy to human kids too! I LOVE the bird bath! I wish I would have came across that at Kmart last night! Me and my dad went into town, and we were going to get one of those fire pits, but then decided not to because we weren't sure how much we would use it. So we ended up getting her a hanging plant I wish we could have found something better... O well, when I got home with the plant, and brought it to my room before my mom saw it, my sister told me that a hanging plant is what she asked for, so SHE really liked it this morning!

My son & Jenny (his wife) gave me several plants for the yard that I'm sure have "scientific" names but I always have called them "Lamb Ears" because the leaves are so soft and velvety to the touch. I said "oh, Lamb Ears, I love them" and they said "well, usually they are but now they are Badger Ears". And yes, they feel like my RB Badger's ears ~ soft and velvety.. I love my family Happy Mother's Day all
