Mother’s Day begins with breakfast in bed, prepared entirely by Maya featuring scrambled eggs, toast, tea and orange juice. Jeanine has prepared a Mother’s Day Wish List having learned over the years that this is the best way to ensure a happy day. Amazingly this list contains items that seem to fall naturally to each member of the family. Kyle cleaned the Honda and removed the white paint which inexpicably jumped from the garage door trim to the side of the van. He also installed the bicycle computer he had given to his mother on her birthday. Nico organized the tea cabinet and planted Dahlia’s in the garden. Maya cleaned and organized Jeanine’s jewelery and also repaired the mirror in her jewelery box (using her now significant expertise in the preparation and use of epoxy). I installed three jewelery holders in the dressing room and hung a belt holder. I also purchased a trellis for the garden and repaired an outside faucet. Jeanine was treated to a chinese dinner to bring the day to a luxurious finish. I was back in action this morning and scored the only goal in our victory over Needham.
