Missing Again!

Roger and I have been so busy these past several weeks, that we really haven't taken much time to sit down and enjoy being home.  Yesterday as I was driving somewhere, Roger called on the phone to tell me a chickadee had come to visit.  He had actually been there several days when I was running from one end of the county to the other.  I missed him again, but was sure happy Roger could stand in as proxy for me.

We got home from a great dinner at Roger and Brittany's last night, and I walked into our sunroom and thought I was in someone else's house.  Our two burgundy chairs were missing!!!  Everything was neatly arranged and it all looked great, but something was missing.  Alas, two burgundy chairs.  As it turns out, our sunroom looks great this way, but when whomever has our chairs is done with them, we'll happily restore them to their respective places.  Check out our new sunroom.  Light and airy and spacious!!!

THANKS

Well, you've all put me to shame with all your new posts and interesting stories.  Like Greta, I've had blog block since we got back from Rochester...nothing personal, Chrissy.  I just had a lot to say after that visit, and not any idea what to write about since then.  Until now.

I look back on Mother's Day this year, and must tell you all how happy and proud I am to be your mom!!  I learn so much from each of you, admire all the things you do, and can never get over the fact that you do so much and never seem to get tired.  Today Dad and I left home at 10:00am, got back here at 4:30pm, and we're both exhausted.  Did we run after kids?  No!  Did we chase some dogs around the house?  No!  Did we work at the office, clean the house, work in the garden, do laundry or have a bunch of people over? No!  We ran errands!  Very tiring. :)

Anyway, you guys are the best.  I'm so thankful to be a wife, your mom, and a grammy.  I  can't ask for anything better.  I love you all...husband, kids,  in-laws, grandchildren.  THANKS!
