Presents From Kids
Since yesterday was Mother's Day, my boys presented me with objects signifying their affections. Michael, who has carefully observed over the past two and a half weeks as I've made good use of my insomnia to finish 17 of the books in my "to be read" pile, gave me a book mark. He encouraged me to set a book aside long enough to actually use it.
Tucker gave me an oil painting that he's been working on. We talked about how the painting should be framed. Where it should be hung. And then he said, "And when I move out, I'll want to take it with me so I can remember you."
But in the meantime, I can enjoy it all I want.

Your boys really warm my heart. They remind me of my brother in their logic (with the bookmark) and quiet affections.
Happy Belated Mum's Day!
THAT IS AN AWESOME PAINTING!!
I am super impressed with Tucker's painting ...... did he do that in school or at home and did he have help?
@sweet_dixie_rose - He did the painting at school. I'm not sure how much help he got. I know that he worked on it several days and that it still wasn't dry when he brought it home on Thursday.
I love it..........If you get tired of it I wants it.
Glad to hear you had a Happy Mommies Day!
WOW....what a fantastic job he did! I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day.
He's a regular Bob Ross!
That really is a great painting.
I love hearing stories about your boys!
Wow, awesome.
Your boys are so talented. And sweet. And funny.
That is a wonderfully good painting.
What a good job he did. Talented boy. Judi
aren't kids sweet?
So now it's evident that both those boys have artistic bends, most distinctly.
