Happy Mother's Day One Day Later!

First let me say that I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day spent with their families. Carson and I had planned on a quiet day just the two of us, but there were other plans that I was unaware of. I had been looking forward to Saturday for months... I had an all day crop to attend and I had made arrangements for Carson to spend some time with my Mom and Dad, and my sisters family. I was going to pick him up at 3pm and go and pick up the sitter I had hired for the rest of the evening. Her mother was scrapbooking with us and she was just going to pick up Macy when it was over. My day was PLANNED! I was enjoying some much needed Mommy time. Carson was dropped off with my sister, I was busy working on a project at the crop and Wayne calls me. Now when he, who is supposed to be in Virginia, asks me how late I am going to be out, I start to question him as to what he is up to. Just so you know he is always up to something! He convinces me that he is not up to anything and just making conversation. About 45 minutes later I look up and Carson is walking into the crop room, my very first thought is I forgot something, and Wendy is bringing him by for it. So I ask "did Aunt Wendy bring you by".... and He just grins as big as all get out and said nope..."MY DADDY DID" Sure enough Wayne walks in right behind him.Now just so you know... I questioned Wayne several times during the week, because he gives away little clues as to his plans... and I have been able to read him for years. He really had finally convinced me he wasn't coming home, so I was VERY surprised to see him. He had to do a lot of finagling to get this to all work out. He called my sister and mom and dad. He cancelled the sitter, he traded in frequent flyer miles, and he made arrangements to work out of home on Monday. While this was a very short trip, it was one that both Carson and I needed. Oh and I did get a cool new little camera for my purse... yea... so I feel I really raked it in this Mother's Day.
