Mother's Day Weekend Recap

Pro: Sam had off over the weekend. This is the second Mother's Day weekend he's had off since starting in this career field 8 years ago.

Pro: We took advantage of our freedom and went away.

Pro: We spent the day at my parent's cabin in the next county. Not only was it very nice, but it was a wonderfully inexpensive get-away.

Pro: Being unplugged from the telephone, internet and everything that reminds us that we have work to do. We even skipped out on our church duties and spent the WHOLE day there. PURE BLISS.

Con: Micah was bored out of his skull and in 2.3 minutes when our backs were turned, he took the plexiglass covering off the 1,000 piece puzzle that  was the centerpiece on the coffee table and slid the whole thing off onto the floor. Piece by itty bitty piece.

I cried.

I hope your Mother's Day was all about the pros.

Ohhhhhh Karen. I'm so sorry. I hope you enjoy doing puzzles :) It's amazing what little ones can do and how quickly, isn't it?

Well, i have to say that there were more pros than cons at least! I am wondering if you got the puzzle back together?

Yikes! I think I would have cried as well. At least the family had something to do together during the weekend!

No worries mate! Whoever made the puzzle once will have the joy of doing it again! You could blow up some great photos to put under the glass. Micah just wanted to play. Boys will be boys. He sure looks cute in that boy scout get up.
