I'm Baaaaaack!

I just want to start by saying thank you to everyone who checked in while I was away and so sorry that I have not been on......My sister-in-law is doing well.......baby boy is still a cookin'. She is on total bed rest now and is going to the doctor every three days. As for me, I have been really busy at work in addition to having some other stuff going on. Been kind of confusing around my way lately. I had a really good Mother's day yesterday and I got to be with all my girls all day long. That was the first time in six years that my step daughter's stayed with me all day! I felt so lucky and appreciated. My husband made sure that I had the best day ever. He took care of breakfast and he and the girls straightened up the house. We visited with my grandmother and then last night we ate out with my mom. I had a very relaxing day and got some very thoughtful gifts from my hubby and girls. Thanks, honey!! Happy Mother's Day to all you other Mommas.....this is a little funny that I got that I thought would be appropriate for Mother's Day. Again thank you to everyone that checked in on me, especially Dawn, Brenda Jennifer and Valarie.
