Mother's Day 2012

This year Archer really outdid himself. I have learned in the last 7.5 years of marriage that he really WANTS to do whatever I really want - and we are both better off if I just tell him what that is, rather than waiting for him to guess. So, when I read on a blog about an absolutely fantastic idea for how he and the girls could pamper me on Mother's Day, I sent that link right along to his email, and was left to enjoy a fantastic day. Yummy italian food, a trip to the botanical gardens to see some gorgeous roses, and a home-made spa day with two young masseuse and Archer whipping up a sweet sugar-scrub. Lily was especially thrilled to bring me hot towels from the dryer and to come baby-sit me to "see if you need anything, Mama". :) Such sweetness! Half the fun was just seeing how the girls LOVED being able to do something special for Mama.
