Mother's Day

I got a call at 6 a.m. this morning as I was heating water for the coffee. I assumed it was my sister telling me to pick up rolls or maybe some paper plates for lunch today but it was from a co-worker in Charlotte, North Carolina. "We have a system down and I need your help." I was on the phone from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. before I got relieved.
My mom goes to bed fairly early but when I got off, Jilda and I ran down and spent some time with her. She was all gussied up sitting on her chair talking to my sisters. We took Buddy with us and he loves my mother. He always sits near by when she eats because she's an easy mark. He can always get a piece of fried chicken or a French fry. She has never been fond of animals and puts on like she doesn't like him but I can tell she really does because her face always lights up when he waddles in.
We sat and talked for a long while this evening and she laughed more than she has in a long time. This is our first year without Jilda's mom and it has been a very difficult day for her.
Anyhow, today's' entry will be short but I did want to say happy Mother's Day to all you mom's out there. I hope you had a great day.
