Be still, my heart!

I know my kids love me. They tell me semi-regularly and they show me that they do every day but today was a first; Hank asked me -- ME! -- what I want for Mother's Day. Thank you third grade teachers for putting that idea in my child's head. It was a touching mother/son moment.

I realize of course that he's thinking hard about how to sell me on the idea of a lukewarm hotdog lunch and several rounds of laser tag at GameStop after church that day.
