Dow was out of town this weekend for Laura and B.J.'s wedding in Florida, which I sadly missed (but my cankles and giant stomach would have seriously ruined pictures). My mom came to Birmingham and stayed with my until Dow got home.
We had such a good time, mainly because mom did EVERYTHING for me. She cleaned my house, including my oven that is now spotless. She watered my yard. She took out the trash. She did about 12 loads of laundry. She gave me a pedicure. She made me chicken spaghetti. She went to Wal-Mart for me. She helped me pick up the rocking chair for the nursery, and she lugged it into the house all by herself. She gave me curbside service all around Birmingham since I'm having some trouble walking, although city traffic isn't her thing. She made Liam a sign and wreath for his coming home party. She sat with me at the doctor's office. She slept on the couch so (1) I could have the bed, and (2) Abby wouldn't whine. She made me blueberry pound cake. She bought me stuff. She helped me find some awesome baby consignment shops. She let me eat pretty much all the cookies from Savages and the french fries from McDonald's. She dropped off all my bags at the Salvation Army. She cleaned all the trash out of my car, which was substantial. She took care of the dogs. She listend to me whine and complain and cry on occasion. She made my bed. She was wonderful.
I love you Mom, and I'm sad you're gone. Come back soon.
Morgan
