Today was a true Mother's Day in that all of the Heinisch children needed their mother's help with something or other and we spent the day helping them. Doug was able to take Brett to visit Jeanette. He had really wanted to see her as soon as he got home and today was the best day for that. Meg had several items that I needed to help her with that took up most of the afternoon. By the time I finished with helping her Cameron had returned from the golf course and needed immediate attention as well. Cal spent the afternoon at the golf course trying to correct the problem in his swing, so he just needed us to leave him alone.
The day was not a total work day, however, as we were able to all meet together for dinner. We decided on Buffalo Wild Wings and for the first time since Disney World, we were all able to go out together. Doug had brought me flowers earlier in the week and today they gave me chocolate almonds. Cameron's Happy Mother's Day sign greeted me first thing this morning and Meg's homemade card reading "Muffins to do, but appreciate you!" was awesome!
Overall, not the mother's day we had planned, but life happens and sometimes plans go awry. We will regroup later in the summer and, hopefully, have a Mother's and Father's Day celebration together. Until then I will just enjoy being the mom of the very busy Heinisch children.
