Surprise Mom!!
In my last post, I was bemoaning the fact that this would be the first mother's day without all my children present. Little did I know that sweet Crystal had lied to me all week!
Friday evening after 10:00, I was sitting quietly, watching TV with Ray when Micki runs in carrying a dog! She says, "Look what we found running around up the road!" Now keep in mind how tired I am. I had cooked dinner for everyone, cleaned up the kitchen, kept Noah all day plus laundry, housework, etc. So I couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that if Baci was here, Crystal was too. All I could think of was "What the hell is going on? What's happened to Crystal?" I looked past Micki to ask Johnny what was going on and there stood Crystal laughing. Surprise MOM!
What a wonderful surprise! She had planned to ride in with Rose and lied to me all week. I'll forgive you this time honey! I would have known the sound of Crystal's car as soon as it slowed down on Coal River Road. When I heard Micki's van, I didn't think anything about it. She lives beside me! Micki and Johnny met Rose and Crystal in Charleston and brought her home. And Rose picked her up on Sunday to head back to Baltimore.
In the meantime, I enjoyed having Crystal here the last few minutes of her birthday. Cindy had made a cake to surprise her with and it seems the BBQ I had spent the day making was for Crystal's birthday dinner but since she was late, we ate and Micki put up leftovers so Crystal could have her dinner when she got in. I thought I was making BBQ because Chris wanted it. They got me good this time.
We had a wonderful time at Cindy and Chris's annual Mother's Day cookout, usually held for Chris's mom and myself but Judy decided not to attend this year. Hopefully she'll attend the next function we have together as extended family stuff. Chris did a superb job with the cookout and serving lunch. The gifts were nice but the best part was having all my girls there with me.
Thank you for another wonderful Mother's Day to my three wonderful daughters and my almost as wonderful son-in-laws. I love you!
