Happy Mother’s Day!

My husband made a nice breakfast this morning, and the kids both gave me presents they’d made. Part of Blaine’s present was this lovely poem (corrected only for spelling, though the restaurant mentioned is actually Courtyard on Grove–yummy place. :-)):

MOM
by Blaine Hoak (age 9)

My mom and I,
Together we laugh and we sigh.
We love to go places and learn new things.
I love my mom for all that she brings.
We love to go to Courtyard on the Cove
That restaurant is found on the street of Grove.
We play World of Warcraft, a computer game.
Our levels are the same.
Together we play and play
We play until the end of the day.
She’s caring, loving and so very sweet.
She is very cool and very neat.
My mom is a very great cook.
She has almost a million books.
We shop and shop
We never stop.
That is why I love my mom.
She’s the ultimate bomb.
