Spoiled Rotten

Hello fellow Moms. I hope that you all had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. I certainly did.  I was spoiled rotten.

My son made me a nestlike bowl out of popsicle sticks.  My daughters put their money together and got me a Body Shop basket including mango body wash, soap, body scrub and body lotion... it smells wonderful! My husband got me an alarm clock/AM-FM radio/ipod docking station to replace my radio/alarm clock that no longer tuned in to any radio stations and therefore woke me up with either a silent flashing screen (not very effective) or a most annoying buzzer that sent me flying to the ceiling with my heart in my throat every time it sounded (not a great way to start the day).

As if all of this was not enough, my husband gave me a break from breakfast duty Sunday morning.  While I took a relaxing shower, he prepared a nice pancake breakfast for all of us. I also got a break from supper duty on Saturday because we went to my parents' place for supper and lunch duty on Sunday because we went to my in-laws' place for lunch. So all in all, it was a great weekend.  My gang will have to work hard next year if they want to top it!

I hope that you were all pampered and spoiled as much... after all, we deserve our special day, right?
