Mother's Day

Unfortunately Jenny had to work on her mother’s day too.  So that left Grandpa (after a busy, hectic week, Brian’s job get extremely busy with warmer weather) with the number one babysitting spot.  We all made it through the day and night.  

One of the nicest gifts I received on this mother’s day (besides those from Brian and the girls) was when I called Dora, my 79 year old mother.  She has been letting me know for some time that this cruising idea might be a little crazy.  During our phone call she said that after thinking it over she has come to the conclusion that it might not be a bad ideal after all.  She told me that she was happy that I realize that there is more to life than just work. 

After experiencing the loss of her husband and my father Tony when she was only 45 years old - I guess she would know better than most. 

THANKS MOM
