To special moms who support us, you such caring and special thanks enjoy your day

My DD and her fiance came out, and my dad treated us all to lunch at one of my fav local Mexican food restaurants. I’m still thinking of my veggie chili relleno with queso fresco. Ahhhh. I wish I could eat it every day. :) I tried to convince them to move in with us, but they won’t. I’m not doing Empty Nest Syndrome well. I want to be with her every day. It’s been years since she moved! She’s 27! When do I get used to it?!

We had a wonderful day here with my mother, daughter and her family, DH, me and our younger son. The only one missing was our eldest who facetimed. My SIL (late brother’s wife), my two nephews and her husband called and sent pictures from Italy where they have been visiting Nephew 2 doing his junior semester in Florence. We had brunch at the club, then home for dessert (my famous fresh blueberry pie), and playing with the littles while the young adults caught up on their video game wars downstairs. DH and I took Andrew on a long golf cart ride to see all the waterfalls in the community and visit the grandchildren’s playground. My mother played with the baby and went home very tired around 4. Everyone else left after dinner.… we are so thankful most of us live within an easy drive! DH gave me a lovely gift of jewelry and the kids went in together on an ice cream maker that makes (supposedly) very speedy sorbets and granita. Mtn, that is the most beautifully perfect peony I have ever seen. Ever! Jojo, your mother is lovely! Mine turned 90 a little over a week ago. We are having a birthday weekend for her in her hometown in June with all her relatives… she and two of her cousins are all 90+ now and are the “grande dames of the fam.“ Love all the pictures of moms, recent and historic ❤️
