Feelings and Mother's Day update

My husband does have feelings after all. Sometimes I swear although one of the sweetest persons I have ever met I doubt my husband has feeling or a sentimental bone in his body. Well yesterday proved me wrong. He calls me and says, my wedding ring is gone. Maybe I took it off in my sleep he says. I will take a look I tell him and I do in the bed, on the floor, under the bed, nothing. Even in his dirty pile of clothes alongside the bed. Nowhere. Now I was a little worried. Hmmmmm, where oh where could his ring be? I look in the living room, in the couch and there it was. I call him back and tell him and the sound of relief in his voice was so obvious, it surprised me to be honest.

I later asked him if he was relieved if I found his ring because it was expensive or if he thought I would be mad. (His wedding ring actually cost more than mine, I am sure because it is probably twice the amount of gold and because it is a two-tone gold blend in it.) His answer again surprised me, he said because it is my wedding ring and it means a lot to me. Whoa!!!!!!! Like I said he is not a sentimental man at all so this totally came out of left field. It was very sweet to hear though.

Mother's Day was nice. We hit the zoo on Saturday. I took a late afternoon nap while John was in the yard with the kids then he woke me up with flowers. Sunday we did some things around the house, I got a card from everyone with one of my favorite gifts of all, an iTunes gift card inside. I also got the usual and very special gifts from the kids that they make in school, got treat to lunch and also another nap.

Now the details on the gifts I bought for my mom and mother-in-law that I promised last week. There is a stained glass store in town. I never went in but am so glad I did. Their stuff is amazing. They can make anything you want. I got the mothers sun catchers. But this store makes windows, panes that are large that hang on big windows, they sell all the stuff to do your own stained glass, the panes, the torches, the patterns, solder. You name it they have it. It may well be a new addiction for me.
