My Mother's Day

Oh, kids make life worth living. My little darlings made my dinner especially fun tonight. We decided to go to the Mongolian BBQ to celebrate Mother's Day.

First, Allie burned her mouth on the hot noodles. She probably would have been ok any other time, but today she didn't have a nap and I think she was more emotional. She wanted to sit on my lap (which crammed us together in the booth) and cry into my shoulder. Then I tried to feed Ryan some of his meal and he was so eager he bit on the wrong end of the fork -- right into my finger. (He clamps down on his bites too.) While I was cringing from the pain of the bite, I looked over and saw that Emmie had both of her middle fingers stuck up her nose and was trying to catch the attention of another group of diners! Ethan said, "Well, Happy Mother's Day!" and I just about lost it. I could not stop laughing.

I hope you all have memorable Mother's Days too!
