Mother's Day came and went this year without any fanfare. We had our puppy spayed a few days before and keeping her outa mischief and in her cone head kept us pretty busy - so no special dinners for the moms (my mom & mother-in-law).
Our son is a manager at Outback in Portland, so his day was pretty busy, but I did get a call from him late that night, and our daughter called in the morning.
But hubby did try to make a special breakfast for Mom and I...and it proved to be a bit of a frustration. He went out to buy the groceries, and the credit card machine at the store refused to take his debit card. We heard later the store had been having an issue with many customers. So he ended up going to another store, where the card did work...but this was on the other side of town.
By the time he got home he was grumbling, but breakfast was good.
Maybe there was not a lot of fanfare this year, but I was happy to know my children were happy and healthy....and for a mom, that is a necessary ingredient for a happy Mother's Day.
