mother's day......

ok, so on mother's day we had a motely crew of mothers at our table......there was me, the mm in residence....and my mother....and cayle's mimi...who was her foster mother for 5 years until the adoption......and cara,the birth mother called during lunch...........we spoke of mimi's two daughters......who cayle also regards as mama boo and mama chris.......we could have included pappy's new wife, but we have already had the pleasure of this experience at cayle's baptismal celebration, when mimi and the new wife showed up to celebrate cayle's free will baptisim........(we are southern baptist..........)i was relieved that the mothers ended at 3 rather than 5 or 6.........this summer......when scw goes to governors' scholars.....for 5 weeks, and acw is in lexington.....it will be just the three of us........1 mother, 1 father, and 1 daughter....no extra mothers............we have never had such close quarters...............this will be a telling summer...........
