Mother's Day

Well today was Mother's Day and it started out great. My kids (with the help of Clifton) made me breakfast and they came in and told me to get up and eat. It was the cutest thing. Plus on the table was two homemade cards that they had made for me. Friday when Allison came home from school she had brought me a flower that was barely sticking up out of the cup and now today it is as tall as the cup that it is in. She is so amazed with it. She had also made me a hand print on a piece of tile. It is the nicest thing when your kids make you stuff at school or at home. Homemade thing or things from the heart are the best things that a mother can get.

Yesterday we started building fence for the kid's goat they have and finally got it finished late in the afternoon. The kids went up to get her out of the dog pen that we had her in and put her in the new pen. They stayed for awhile and watched her then they came to the house. A little later we looked out on her and she was not in the lot. We had found her, she had went through the gate into the horse lot. The horses were having fun with her. She then went though the barb wire fence and headed right back to her first home. We laughed so hard. So today Clifton went out and put cattle panel on the gates so she could not get out.

You know it was Mother's Day but I think I worked harder today than I have for a long time. I spent the day going through the kid's room and mine. We had a cleaning party and it feels good to sit down now, b/c I just put the kids to bed and did not have to step over toys and other things on the floor. Hopefully they will help keep them clean from now on......HaHa They were not happy with me when it was all over b/c I throw out broken toys and toys that they don't play with anymore.

Well I am going to close this blog for now. I have to study for a Statistic final in the morning. Yeah last final, then I have the summer off. Wish me luck on this one.
