"Mama, Mama...there's too many of you cryin' "
Like I promised, I am adding a new post today! These pictures are evidence that I have become the world's worst mommy. Buck is addicted to "Thomas the Tank Engine" videos, toys and temporary tatoos (affixed to the back of his hands). Here, he is just laying around watching the video while I get things done around the house. Last week, I was busy planning a Cinco de Mayo Party & getting ready to leave for Reno. Also, there was the Pure Fashion show where I was planning to sell merchandise. Poor Buck was ignored for a few days.
On a "better mommy" note, a friend of mine (and fellow mommy) sent a bit of a beautiful poem that Maya Angelou wrote for her mother. I love it, so I'm including it below. HAPPY LATE MOM'S DAY TO ALL OF YOU WHO ARE BETTER MOMMIES THAN ME! (which is everyone) - hee!
"It is true
I was created in you.
It is also true
That you were created for me.
I owned your voice.
It was shaped and tuned to soothe me.
Your arms were molded
Into a cradle to hold me, to rock me.
The scent of your body was the air
Perfumed for me to breathe.
You were always
The heart of happiness to me,
Bringing nougats of glee,
Sweets of open laughter."
