We made it home! There was alot of traffic so we didn't get home until 7:30. It was just too late to go to Albany Med so I will take her up first thing in the morning and meet up with her oncologist to take out the PICC line. I got most of the packing done tonight. John had one extra chore this week that he didn't do, so it adds to tomorrows list. He has no clothes for Florida. Everything he owns has grease, paint or compound on it. So at some point tomorrow we need to get to the store to get him some things. I hope I don't forget anything. It helps that I am packed from NYC, so some of the things just get to stay packed. I am starting to get nervous about the trip. I just can't wait to be down there in the sunshine by the pool on Sunday. I so desperately need some relaxation time. I probably will not get to update tomorrow or all of next week. I think you all know we will be having the time of our lives. I thought i'd put up the beach theme page to get in the mood. I will have many many many pics to update when we get back. i will probably put them on photobucket so you can see all the pics. I want to wish all the moms out there a wonderful Happy Mother's Day!! I am so happy that i get to spend mine in Florida. My birthday is on Monday too. Maybe Mickey will give me a birthday hug! I'll end with something for all you moms.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO PLAN TO BE GREAT MOMS, THOSE OF YOU, WHO ARE GREAT MOMS, THOSE WHO HAVE GREAT MOMS AND THOSE OF YOU WHO HAD GREAT MOMS...
Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.
Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox.
Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.
Real Mothers know that dried play dough doesn't come out of shag carpets.
Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up.
Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?' and get their answer when a little voice says, 'Because I love you best.'
Real Mothers know that a child’s growth is not measured by height or years or grade... It is marked by the progression of Mama to Mom to Mother...
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!
Happy Mother's Day! Love, Jenny
