Happy mothers day to all you mothers out there. I know its one of those schmaltzy made up holidays.. but I like it.. It’s nice to take a day to think of those who gave us life.. and breakfast..<\/p>\n

We had a great day.. our gift to Diane was to spend the day working in the garden with her.. which was incredibly fun and grounding.\u00a0 Diane is such a wonderful mate and mom.. it was fun digging in the dirt with her all day.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

we took an early mornign run, then headed out to weed the front garden.. a few hours later, gabe woke up and we went in and had a yummy crepe breakfast..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

as always, sam was with us in spirit..\u00a0\u00a0 we light the candle to invite him in.. I felt him here.. and not here.. so strongly\u00a0 all day
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Gabe and I needed superpowers for gardening.. so I resorted to an old cohn family recipe… grape juice and orange juice mixed and stirred with a green tinkertoy (though I had to substitute a green chopstick)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

then it was back outside to work.. about 8 hours total..
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

we weeded and mulched one of the front gardens,
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

mulched and weeded part of the beds next to the barn..
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

got the pool cover off and started\u00a0 filling the pool (though we’re still having occasional frosts)
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

dog the turf off of our crazy septic plant, lined it, put down garden cloth and mulched it..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

took down the rest of the storm windows (we have over 300 plates of glass around here)
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

and I fixed Diane’s fountain.. a mothers day present which max, sam gabe and I chose for her together…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

mid day we took a break to talk to max, and our parents.. Max was visiting my folks with Jac and his boat buddies Dave and Amy . .. so we did a facetime chat with him. We got to speak to my mom … and wish her a happy moms day.. Shes a great mom…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

we love you judy !!!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

here are some flowers that Max and Jac picked out for her.. I was so gld he was down with granda on mothers day..what a good kid !
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

max sent diane a mothersday movie.. and he watched her watch it via facetime.. very cool !
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I got to speak to Diane;s Mom , marcia later in the evening..\u00a0 it was good speaking with her. too. We love you Marcia !.<\/p>\n

by 7 we were all beat.. Gabe was on the tramp listening to Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

now.. I’m ready to fall asleep… gotta go wash off soem of the dirt first.. more tomorrow..<\/p>\n

nite all, nite sam… we miss you today and every day..<\/p>\n
