Mother's Day

We celebrated American Mother's Day on Sunday, May 13 (we missed the UK one).

Here is my first macaroni art, beautifully designed by Margot:


Technically, it's fusilli art, but I love it anyway. Andy let me sleep late, which is what I wanted most of all. And, he and Margot made a fantastic pancake breakfast.

The Burtons arrived later that day from Spain. Unfortunately, Lilly had gotten ill while in Spain: vomiting, diarrhea and arrived in London with a 103 degree fever. So, Paige spent her first Mother's Day in the Emergency room. Lilly was fine; they deemed it was a virus and they were okay to fly home the next day. Anyway, that's what it is to be a mom. Spending your special day cleaning up poop, fretting about your sweet baby and trying to catch pee in a cup.

We wouldn't change it for the world.
