• Mother's Day

  *yawns*
  *stretches*
  *drags her butt out of bed...finally*
  
  It's almost 1:00 in the afternoon and I'm finally waking up.  I've been fighting a mild cold all week, but this morning it has kicked my butt and robbed me of my voice.  Happy Mother's Day.  However, my husband and daughter have taken marvelous care of me and let me get lots of sleep.  So, I consider myself one lucky momma.
  
  Yesterday I got out my camera to take a few pictures of the garden.  When we bought the house, I inherited a number of flowers and plants as well.  This is our first spring here and every week there's a new surprise budding up from the earth.
  
  There's the Pink Tennessee in front of the driveway.
  
  
  There are shy little violets along the side of the house.
  
  
  I have tulips...
  
  
  ...bleeding hearts...
  
  
  ...and a new peony bush.
  
  
  But when I turned on the camera, I discovered something rather curious.  Someone had been taking pictures without my knowledge.  I have let her use my camera before, but always supervised.  I found almost fifty pictures of our cats.  And some of them were pretty good, actually.   I was impressed.
  
  And this one is my favorite.
  
  Not a bad photo for a seven year old.  What do you think?
  
  *yawns*
  *stretches again*
  This post has worn me out.
