Mother's Day * Empress Treatment

Oh, how wonderfully blessed I have been to have two daughters, and a son now, who love me so. Thank you all for such a fantastic Mother's Day. I was given a manicure/pedicure, blaved at rummy, walked to the river (pushed in, got my revenge though - "Sure, the waters' not cold, come on in!), three gourmet meals complete with chocolate raspberry tart, and a fantastic foot massage. I enjoyed every moment and the weather was great! As the day was winding down, I didn't want it to end. Who would, right? Bill worked on the  chicken coop design, and Jon kept the cool refreshing drinks coming. Did I say how blessed I am yet?
Caragh and Champ loved running freeeeeeee and swimming in the river. All the animals got along well. Jon adopted the black rooster, now dubbed "El Diablo". Jiggi decided he deserved a place at the table and somehow managed without being seen like a table-ninja, to secure a corner of it. We laughed a lot, reminisced, laughed some more and ate till we were bloated. I guess I got my wish too, when I wished for more days like this.  Blessed - yes, truly blessed!
