I realize this post is a little late, but I have kept putting it off and finally have a quiet (as quiet as it gets anyway) to sit and do it.
Labor day weekend I went to my Mom's house. It was so great. They are leaving to go on a mission December 29th to Villa Hermosa, Mexico, so I am trying to squeeze in as much time with them as possible. Anyway, Monday (Labor Day) was my favorite day of the trip. It turned really cold on Sunday night and was all rainy on Monday (of course, Labor Day is always rainy). My mom and I went out to get some peaches so we could bottle them, as part of my inadequate but honest effort to get some food storage. We canned peaches, and made peach pie with made-from-scratch crust, and apricot jam. It was so fun to laugh with and learn from my mom. She has taught me EVERYTHING I enjoy doing, including swimming and playing the piano. and it was fun to be tutored by her again. She is so patient with me, and she is such a good teacher! Anyway, I think Monday was a day that I will always remember. It brought old feelings back of knowing I was loved unconditionally. Making something with my Mom was so comforting and "homey" Thanks mom!

You almost made me cry, but I stopped it! Nice post. :)
You're welcome Monica. It was one of my FAVORITE days too. Your little soccer team is so cute. Remember when I was your volleyball coach in Jr. High and we never won a game? We got better with each game though and we all felt like winners.
Love you.
Mom
