Mother’s Day
Early this morning, Jude (with a little help from Josh, I’m guessing) surprised me with a super yummy smelling bar of fancy soap from a spa/salon in Evanston. Now, some of you may be thinking that my family was trying to let me know that I have horrible body odor. I, however, know better. I have been using plain old castile soap for months now-it’s cheap, effective, and it isn’t loaded down with crappy ingredients. I never indulge in the nice fancy soaps. I’m too practical, and they’re too expensive.
Today my husband and my son treated me to a small, but extremely thoughtful pleasure. I had a great time in the shower (Hey! Getcher mind out of the gutter, you!) and felt… I don’t know… a little girly? like an actual person? when I emerged all clean and nice smelling.
I had a lovely day with my family (for the most part-can you say MELTDOWN at 6:30? Can you?) and am really, really looking forward to spending the next seven days with them.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there!
