We had another special day at home today. Mom visited with a couple of her dear friends, Diane and Aleyne. The house was full of raucous laughter and the stories being told were hilarious. Laughter is the best medicine, right? She got a good dose today. I have a feeling Mom preferred their medicine to the pills we have to force-feed her 4 times a day... thanks for upstaging us, Diane and Aleyne! They also came bearing a variety of delicious soups and treats for Mom and some special gifts for her. Mom continues to be overwhelmed with everyones' generosity - we all are.
Kelly came with her famous Shepard's Pie that Mom has been pining for. After a small cooking lesson regarding why putting paper recipes in the oven is a bad idea that Dad delivered to our resident Home Economics teacher... who shall remain nameless... the house was full of a delicious smell that could never be replicated by any beef pie Yankee Candle. It was a really special treat for us.
We're going to be pretty busy tomorrow preparing for the trip out to Buffalo. Hopefully we'll all sleep well and wake refreshed to tackle another hectic day.
Mom hopes everyone has a nice weekend and sends her love to everyone.
Love,
Amy
Sounds like a great day! So happy for you!
