Mother's Day Moments

Today is British Mothering Sunday (aka Mother's Day). It began early when Cami came up to our room at 6 a.m. to try to get me out of bed so she could give me the present she'd made at Brownies. (Sleeping in is not really a part of my life as a mother.)

There have been other low lights:

Graham joining Cami's efforts to get me up which required that they have a fight in my bed while "snuggling" with me & Jason.

Pregnancy nausea and the kids' insistence that they finish off the 2 liter of Sprite that was open because of that nausea.

Continued fighting throughout the day.

All children "forgetting" that it hurts a lot when they elbow me in my enormous stomach.

And the one that made me and Jason laugh:

Rosie crying in the living room led to Jason asking what was wrong.

"Graham bited me."

"Graham bit you?"

"No, he BITED me!"
