Happy Mothers Day to Me!

I had the best "early" Mother's Day ever... thanks to this guy!

He and the kids had a "secret" meeting during the week and planned my whole day....

Brunch at Moyo Zoo Lake - something I've been wanting to do for a LONG time.

A boat ride around Zoo Lake - not only pleasant but also rather amusing as CW and EW tried to row us around. And some time to play on the best playground discovered in Johannesburg, thus far.

It would have been a PERFECT day, if only it hadn't ended with JW having to fly off to Australia!

Happy Place

Russell's current "happy place"...

For the last few days, when I notice the house is TOO quiet, I've hunted around and found Russell here, surrounded by "happy things" -- this time, it was his motorcyle and a good book.

These days, my "happy place" is snuggled between my new Woolies Winter Sheets. (Seriously the softest and non-balled-up flannel sheets I've ever experienced.) They add happiness to my life.

Where is your "happy place"?
