Double Whammy

Happy Mother's Day (or, for my Hawaiian friends,Hau`oli La Makuahine.)

This morning started pretty early for a Sunday, 8 AM.  It started early because my 10 year old son had a surprise for me and the Mrs.:  breakfast in bed.  Scrambled eggs, toast, and coffee!  He cooked them himself, and brought them in to us. 

A great way to begin mother's day, and a great day to begin our 13th Anniversary.  Following breakfast, our daughter presented Carren with a plant she'd been growing on her windowsill and a books she'd made in class.  Our son followed up with a cookbook his class had made for moms.

As for the Mrs. and I, we opted to not make a big event of this anniversary.  We both realize that gifts will equal more crap to move in a month, and our needs are met, so our anniversary gift to each other is a the simplest of things:  each other.

Hau`oli la Ho'omana'o, babe.
