Happy Mother's Day!!!


Well another Mother's day has come and gone. I did not do very well this year as far as gifts go. Tonya had been hinting that she wanted a bike and maybe a stroller to attach to the back of it. This is probably a part of our healthier habits that we have been trying lately. I'll save that for another blog. I had been checking Craig's List regularly and had seen that if you watch, you could get these pretty cheap. As a backup plan I found them at Academy Sports as well. Long story short Craig's list did not come through and I was too afraid to go buy it without her seeing it first. It's a good thing I did, because she decided that she wasn't sure that she could still ride a bike or would trust herself with putting the babies in the stroller behind it. Sooooo, this means yet again I am left without a gift to present on Mother's Day.

She was great though. I expected to get a little bit of lip for not having her anything. I didn't even get her a card. I did however have the kids make her a card, but I lost it. I found out later that they had given it to her last Friday. I am very lucky that Tonya would much rather have something done for her than to recieve anything.

I was given just that opportunity lastnight. Mr. Wesley decided that he wanted to pee everywhere lastnight and then stay up and watch some tv. Then the kids were really good getting ready for church. (That is more of a miracle than a gift.) Then I tried to clean the house as much as I could when we got home. Somehow, this was enough.

I have to hand it to her. She does alot. I could never stay at home and do what she does. I am so tired of changing diapers and gettting everyone ready, but it I have not even scratched the surface of what she has to do everyday.

The best thing that I got her was to FINALLY kill a turkey. Season ends today and I killed me one yesterday. I have never went a year without killing at least one and I was probably getting a little hard to be around. I really get obsessive in turkey season, if you did not already know. For you fellow rednecks out there, it had almost an 11 inch beard and 1 inch spurs. If that doesn't mean anything to you, that's a dandy.
