Sentient

What a privilege it is to be a mother.  A privilege, a responsibility, a joy.  My family made Mothers’ Day very enjoyable for me today.  There were lovely cards waiting for me this morning, plus a model of a boat at sea made by B8.  This afternoon we played tennis together for an hour or so and then returned for a delicious dinner made by Andrew and A12.  They had been watching Master Chef Australia and were inspired to create something from the ingredients available to them.  We sat down to a beautifully presented meal of Spanish Meatballs with baked Acorn Squash in an Orange Capsicum, Lemon and Garlic sauce on the side.  To drink we had an Iced Tea and Ginger ale mix.  The flowers on the table were done by B8 and the clean up by L14.    Perfect.
