When the kids asked what I'd like for Mothers' Day, I had just one answer..."Having all my kids home for the day." I knew that would be
asking a lot since Nathanial would have to come from NC and Matthew has a
lot of commitments in Bath, but my kids gave me my wish and it was
WONDERFUL.
Wayne started off with a rough day and had to make a trip to the ER
for pain. Thankfully, he was able to come home after we got out of
church and enjoyed the rest of the day with us.
The 6 eldest went for a walk with me around Buck Horn Lake.
I am abundantly blessed!
I also have to share a picture that Wayne took before the sheep got sheared. The baby goats thought that it was great fun to use the sheep as "mountains" and would play "king of the mountain"-- jumping on and off the sheep, riding them around the barn/barnyard, and knocking each other off. The sheep would occasionally tire of their hitch-hiking and would walk under the loft of the barn and knock them off their backs. Now that the fleece is too short for the goats to get a footing, the sheep surfing has stopped, but it certainly was entertaining while it lasted.

haven't visited in a while, so I was so happy to see some new stories and catch up with the family!!! guess that's a down fall with FB.. I find I send so much news out that way, that the poor old blogs just don't get the attention that they used to .... but I am determined to keep mine better as well... I like the blogs better!!!! so nice that you had all the kids and that Mother's day was a special one!!! congrats on your "freedom".. though I highly doubt you will find any "extra time on your hands".....
