My mom being here last night and today has been wonderful. I have had a bit of a break from the normal routine while the kids have been distracted by the excitement she always brings, and all smiles.
Whether simply playing with their toys, play dough, helping make chicken casserole, or doing crafts with Ami and Mommy everything seems more exciting for all of us when Ami is involved.
We all needed this help after the busy holiday weekend and with hubby being stuck at school most of the week and Ami also brings with her the contagious smile and positive outlook we all love so much. And of course her wonderful hugs.
Yes she may be a bit of a Hoot at times (owl reference :P) but it's another wonderful quality of my mom.
We all had so much fun. E soon had her wrapped around her finger. We got lots of yummies (the kids and her made chicken casserole, I made chicken with spaghetti, and the kids and I made dirt cake!) and wonderful company.
Only complaint is her addiction to laundry. She rewashed our clean clothes. Yes really. But even that I'll forgive for the incredible amazingness which is Ami.
Thanks again so much for your help Mom! We love you and appreciate you so much!
