WHAT A MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND !!!

MOTHER'S DAY SURPRISE !!!


A few days before Mother's day Lisa called and said, "Let's surprise Mom." We made a plan, Lisa would fly out from New Hampshire and I would pick her up at the airport. Our plan came off without a hitch. Laura had borrowed my car to go to women's conference in Utah and I still had Micah's truck. I told mom that I was going over to Globe to exchange cars (it's not like you can just sneak out of town when you live right next door to your parents). I drove over to the airport to pick Lisa up. I only had to circle the terminal 3 times, and that bus that honked at me didn't know where he was going either. It was so good to see her standing there on the curb. We stopped in Miami on the way home and bought a huge bow (and butterfly nets for cousin camp). We almost got caught when I pulled in the driveway and daddy came walking out the door. I had to practically pull him back in the house while Lisa hid in the front seat. I told them to sit on the couch cuz I had a Mother's day present for both of them, then in walked Lisa. Well, they certainly were surprised.


Having Lisa here was just the beginning of a great weekend. I keep saying that I am the richest woman in the world and I know without a doubt that it is true. Thanks so much to all my kids and grandkids for the cards, flowers, phone calls, and expressions of love. All four of my children called on Sunday and it really made my day. Andrew and Kylie sent me this beautiful crown and told me that I was a queen for the day. I have to admit that George really treated me like royalty. But like he always tells me, "You are so spoiled." and like I say back, "Who's fault is that?" Thank you all, I love you very much.



The only bad part of Lisa coming to visit is when she has to go home. It is good to know, however that she will be coming back in July. We are sure looking forward to that.
