If I needed any evidence that the summer flew by, I got it today when I took my mom back to the airport for her to fly home. She got here just before memorial Day and spent the 3 summer months. I can't believe she's headed home already. But we did a lot. She said that often. Even though we were gone several times and she just stayed here and babysat Buster. I felt like there could have been more ... But here's a list-
1 "camping" trip
Lunch at her place on Wednesdays
Shopping
Thursday evening meals uptown at Woudstra's Brat stand
A trip to the Omaha Zoo with the whole gang
Sunday dinners together
watching movies at home
Having her visit me at the library
A trip to Mason City and a bed and breakfast
Malts and dogs from Bob's
I know plenty of people who don't really enjoy the company of their mother. I'm so glad I have mine, and have had such a time as this to get to know her!
