Happy Mother's Day!

For the past few years, Makenna and I have flown to my parent's house for Mother's Day.  Because Benjy would be in the middle of final projects and it was just best to not be around him. Now those are done, and traveling with Safiya seemed difficult, so we stayed home.  We had lunch with his mom, sister, and her family.  It was a nice day, minus the fact that I caught what the girls had so I've been alternating Tylenol and Advil every 2 hours so as to be able to stay vertical.  Taking Safiya out to eat is a serious nightmare.  Who, WHO designed restaurant high chairs with a bar just at foot level?  Because that is just an open invitation to stand yourself up.  We need to remember to have Makenna stand on something for family photos.  I feel like they look like she isn't part of our family.  Otherwise, a nice photo I think.

The restaurant had an incredible balloon artist.  You could seriously go up to him and request a purple elephant balancing on a piece of celery and you would get it.  Exhibit #1:  Makenna wanted a pegasus unicorn.  That she could wear.  Side note:  she is very into pegasus unicorns right now.  She and her best friend play pegasus unicorn every day at school.  But I thought you were either one or the other.  I didn't think you could be both.  But who am I to argue with a 5 year old.

Hope everyone had great Mommy's Day.
