One thing I've learned is that I'm happier if I think about how I want my day to go for things like Mother's day and birthdays, then I plan what I want to do or communicate what I'd like and then keep my expectations simple, and I'm usually pretty happy! Maybe it's the planner in me...

| Marti and I always do pedicures! This is the first year she's a soon-to-be-mom- so excited for next year when she'll have a cute little boy!! |

| After our Friday afternoon date, Matt and I went to the Home Depot and picked some garden plants! Nothing says eternal optimist like continuing to try to grow things in the summer when you live on the sun's surface! But, growing things is good for my soul, even if it's mostly planting and watering and not much harvesting. I do better with auto-watering and flowers! |

| I meant to get a picture of me and the kids but it didn't happen. They did clean the house and my car and cook me a good dinner! We had two desserts with Marti & Spencer and a beautiful sunset. We also walked to church which is my favorite and we had a nice brunch 2nd hour that I didn't have to plan this year! |

| Here is a picture from an Andy's mom date- I sure love being their mom more than anything else in the world! So grateful for each of them (and Charlotte) and all the joy and learning they bring to my life! |
