Tom went in to Madison to pick up my youngest son and bring him home to celebrate Mother's Day. He had gotten the day off so he could visit - normally he works on Sunday. It was good to see him. The last time I saw him was Easter, I think. I had asked for sushi for Mother's Day dinner so Tom picked up some ready made at Kohl's. He also made chow mein noodles with a peanut sauce. We put the sushi on the "coffee" table (really my laptops home when it isn't in my lap) in the living room and I sat on a pillow on the floor. Ah wasabi! What a treat!
I opened my presents and received windchimes to put near the front door to the east (we have ones south and west now so I just need one more set for the north), a blue gazing ball and faerie pedestal for the garden, and two Science Fiction/Fantasy books. Just what I wanted.
My oldest son and his partner left late afternoon but my youngest stayed and we watched the first episode of Dinotopia together. It was pretty simplistic but I enjoyed it anyway. Then Tom took him home again.
