Great Mother's Day

Sun is shining, hubby is doing yard work, kid is playing next door and I am taking some time to relax.  We have a tradition in our house of pancakes on Sunday mornings which I always make (sometimes with help from little hands).  So I was surprised this morning to be served pancakes in bed!  After enjoying a leisurely breakfast we had a nice calm, slow morning.  I waited for the temp to hit 60 and then headed out to the Fort Gratiot Trail where I put in 22 miles.  There were lots of families out on rides/rollerblades/walks and since the trail is only 5 miles I passed a number of them a number  of times.  I heard one mom encouraging her daughter telling her that "look she's passed us 3 times, keep working and you will be able to too."  Wow - what encouragement!  I also saw my friend Jen out with her daughter which was great, she was pulling the trailer which is very hard work - so good on you Jen!  Now maybe some time for genealogy research.
