Mother’s Day

Excellent Mother’s Day! Spent with my favorite people, doing my favorite things.  Family bike ride!  We went up the North Shore Channel to Skokie for a total of 19 miles.  Lucy enjoyed it and didn’t complain.  We stopped at the halfway point at a park and found a robin’s nest and some broken blue eggs.  Lucy slept on the way home.  Then Fat Cat for dinner, with photobooth picture of Lucy!  Gifts from my TwoBoos include a super comfy new hoodie (in photo) and an orchid and cards.  Truth be told, the best gift was that this weekend we got our FIRST dining table, meaning our first family dinner at home!  We have never had a dining table and only eat at the bar or on the couch, with Lucy in a high chair nearby.  But we decided we need to have family dinners at a table, teach Lucy table manners, and do the good old “How was your day?” and talk to each other.  What a concept!  Pictures to come.  Lucy loves the dining table and will sit there for an hour as long as she is with us!
