A good Mother's Day indeed

Hosting a Mother's Day/Birthday Party just 2 weeks after moving seems overwhelming but Wayland helped pull it off. We invited my mom Gabe, her Mom Angie, my Aunt Maria, my sister Shelley and boyfriend Jason, my moms boyfriend Jeff and my uncle's wife Cristy. This doesn't seem like much but throw in two children, Gretchen and Brielle then add myself and Way.... This mix creates a very loud hungry bunch who can't wait to open presents. Today being Brielles Birthday and all, I thought it would be a sinch to get all the Squeteri's in one place. I was right, they all agreed when they heard shrimp kabobs and cake. Brielle made out with a ton of money, I made out with a belly ache and Wayland made out with his life. Wayland said that just a few hours with my moms family will wear you out. Imagine life with the Sopranos minus the swearing, thats the Squeteri's. Even so, Wayland grilled all the kabobs and cleaned up almost everything he's sooo good to me. In addition, my girls gave me awesome gifts and this is how I know I am loved.

Pictured below is a scanned page out of the story Brielle wrote about her mom. It reads:
"You are an amazing mom because you teach me about monitors (computers)."



Pictured below is a poem Gretchen wrote especially for me:
China Man is my Chinese algae eater fish I love him and he's a ninja.
