05.11.08 Motherless Mother’s Day (Day 2)
Our motherless Mother’s Day weekend continues.
We survived day two. Better than that, we actually had fun. Almost no whining, no fighting, and very little sleeping. I mostly attribute all this to the many powers of ice cream in large styrofoam cups. And Oreos. And chocolate syrup.
Here’s a little footage of all that...and a movie for mom.
