So how was your Mother's Day?  

Mine was set up to be just like I wanted.  Simple.  Just some time with my family and friends.  No gifts.  Just some homemade cards from my kids.

My 8 year old decided to get me a gift, however.  The gift of lice.  

I discovered it sitting next to her in church as we snuggled on the pew.  Yuck!  So, my quiet Mother's Day was spent picking nits for 4 1/2 hours, washing every piece of bedding in the house and all the unwashed laundry.  I bagged up everything I couldn't wash then vacuumed everything possible.  So much for quiet and simple :)
