First Mother's Day

Today was my first "official" Mother's Day, and I had a great day. I got to sleep in, and then woke to breakfast -- pancakes and bacon, my favorite! Then, we went to the beach: And the water was so calm that Norah was very willing to give it a go, and she loved floating out in the ocean (plus, it was a lot warmer this week; we've had temps in the 90s all week). Sand is still somewhat un-trustworthy to her, but she did tolerate sitting in the wet sand right next to the water for a bit.

Then, after the beach, I went and got a massage that Jerry, Norah and Scooter got me for Mother's Day, and that was heavenly. I nearly fell asleep on the massage table and that hour went by way too fast!

So, it was a great first Mother's Day: They set the standard pretty high -- it's gonna be a lot to live up to in the years that follow!
