Yesterday was Mother’s Day. My mom and I share a duplex so we spend a lot of time together. That does not mean I felt any less blessed to spend Mother’s Day with her. My mom has been battling an illness for over two years now. Plus I am of the age where many of my friends are acting as care givers or have mother’s who passed away. I am keenly aware that evey day is a blessing and days like Mother’s Day are a blessing with a bonus.
For Mother’s Day my mom and I went to the ballet. The tickets we used yesterday were not our original ballet tickets. They were replacement tickets for a show we were supposed to see in the fall. I had to switch the tickets because my mom was in the hospital at the time. I had no clue the tickets would be for Mother’s Day, they just switched me to a different ballet in May. What a blessing!
In addition to the ballet earlier in the weekend I treated my mom to a little gambling at Parx Casino. As my dad would say this was “not the year of the Bad Mother’s Day”.
Here are me and Mom at the ballet.
How did you spend Mother’s Day Weekend?
