Today's theme is: A letter to your firstborn. To my dearest firstborn, "The Pal": I can not believe...that this is my 14th Mother's Day. 14 blissful, always peaceful and happy and harmonious years of being a mother. You can stop snickering now. Right now. I mean it. *I'm giving you the mom look right now* Stop laughing. Okay, so "always blissful" might not be accurate...but, Pal...I've gotta say...I love you. I love you more than you will ever know (until you have your own kids--then you might get it!). Your arrival into my life was the best...and I mean absolute best thing that could have happened to me...but, I don't wanna talk about me...let's talk about YOU. I love that you are such a cool kid. I love that you get...

Happy Almost Mother's Day! Forget dragons and snakes...I'm still holding out hope that this will be the Year of the Picnic Table!? You think? (No.) Anyway...it's time for Day 4 of 5 of the Mother's Day Mania! Today's theme is what do you enjoy most about being a mother... or ...have you had an embarrassing mom moment? Now...I'm sure if I ask my kids, they'll be able to tell me (you) gobs of times I embarrassed them. Well, maybe I shouldn't have pluralized that...I shoulda just said, kid , as in my oldest...my teenager...the one who gets embarrassed because I write notes on envelopes. * GASP* Can you believe I had the audacity to write a note...to the secretary ...on a blank envelope?! Why...I never! Anywhoodles...I'm sure he could go on and on about times that I've embarrassed him...but other than the envelope thing? I think I'm a pretty cool mom! So...clearly...I have no embarrassing moments...an besides, I wanna write about what I love abo...

First, I've gotta give probs to my buddy, Crayon Wrangler , for inspiring this portion of the Mother's Day Mania! She and I were talking...this subject came up and voila! A theme for Mother's Day Mania! Thanks, my friend! Now...onto " Whoopsie Wednesday"! Idea is...to share a mama " whoopsie "...a moment in time, you'd probably rather forget, but you'll share anyway, ' cuz you're a good sport...and you'll find that you aren't alone! Without further ado...my " whoopsie " moment. First, tho...lemme say that my husband has had far greater " whoopsie's " than me. I just had to throw that in to build myself up before I knock myself down. Did that make any sense? That last sentence? It just flowed from my fingertips...so we'll lea...

Well...here we go! The official kick off for Mother's Day Mania! Here's the button, if you wanna grab it! This whole idea came about, after the fun I had doing the Valentine's Day Extravaganza! I heard from a lot of people that they really enjoyed it...so I decided to do it again! I'm really excited to hear mama stories from everyone else out there...and I'm hoping this Blog Hop turns out to be as fun as I'm thinking it's going to be! Feel free to join in as many (or as few) days as you'd like! Okay...so, we're gonna start this fun fest...this mania... on Wednesday...for a few reasons.
