frou frou.......

ok, so my eldest presented his mother's day tribute last evening after dinner.....a burned cd of the best of frou frou......gentle readers....i do deserve credit for knowing the imogene heap used to be half of frou frou.....but i didn't remember that the name refers to the sound of silk rubbing against itself......who knew there was a term for that....frou frou's music is so imogene heap in its smooth but edgy quality....a thoughtful gift......i also received a long distance happymothersday call....phone calls may be the new gold standard to the mother with outoftown children........always a heart-beat skipped when one hears ones child's voice after the answering hello.......we are grilling out for lunch......despite the curiously chilly weather.....and we will have the raspberry cake that wasn't quite ready for grandma's birthday yesterday......she had to make do with a birthday streudal.......i am sure that there is more i could say about mother's day......but i have to teach sunday school and i am not quite ready with the lesson.......hopefully when i dart downstairs to iron my church clothes there will be no water spurting from the pipes in the storage closet...not like last week.......this mm does require a mother's day void of irritating mishaps.....
