Mother's Day

Some days are simply better than others and today is one of those days.

After a busy Saturday that included two photography events, U.S. Open volunteer training and Patrick's final Frederick Children's Chorus concert, I woke up at 5:30 to the sound of...... no rain.

I didn't expect a large crowd for the Sunday morning trail run but to my surprise about a dozen people showed up for a relaxed five mile jaunt in the woods. I don't know what is going on, I felt like I could just power up the hills with ease, five miles hardly seemed enough; Nuclear Powered perhaps?

The run over, there was some recover-right, jovial conversation and pictures before I jumped into the car and screamed back to the house (twenty minutes late) for Mother's day brunch. No harm no foul as the Kids were still fast asleep.

Bagels, Salmon, Mini Quiche and Mimosas filled out the menu along with a “fashion show” when Maggie showed off her sheik New York Dress.

Brunch completed, Mom and Dad, who had come down for the concert, packed up and headed down to Baltimore for Grand Daughter Riley's fourth birthday party.

Feeling relaxed it didn't take Sue and I long to lay down for a nap.
