Happy Mothers’ Day

icecream

Around here, Mothers’ Day means you get toppings on your ice cream. Here’s hoping you got some too. Hot Wheels went for coconut with jelly beans. Go figure. Honey and I were all about the chocolate soft serve with m&ms. And you know what I’m telling you? It was GOOD.

Later in the day we went out walking and the kids did their tandem scooter routine. Hot Wheels rides up front and Honey does the power and steering. The best moment came when they rolled past a big mailbox on one of the street corners – they each stuck out a foot simultaneously to kick it as they went by. Coordinated impulse.

 

I can’t believe how lucky I am to get to be a mother. Cheers to the mothers who have shown us how it’s done – to Mum and Gini and Nana and Nessie and Grandma and Pats. To all our role models in love and dedication and inspiration. Thank you.
