Happy Mother's Day to all you BAMA Moms.

[TommyMac]

Thanks for all that you do and I hope you all see or hear from your kids today.

 

[runtheoption22]

Amen!!!

 

[BamaArrived2006]

Yep!!!

:biga2:

 

[CrimsonNan]

Thanks T-Mac. I did! Had dinner with my daughter and her family, and my son called from Florida. :biggrin2:

 

[1BamaNita]

Thanks to all for the wishes!

My son called from Birmingham, and my daughter is here at home. My barner hubby got me a brand new CRIMSON recliner so I can watch those games I can't attend in comfort!

Best wishes to all the other Moms in the Bama family.

I got awakened by my daughters whom my husband had helped set up a nice display on the kitchen table. My daughters are 5 and 3 1/2 so I got a nice little collection of handmade cards, a cloth with my youngest's handprints in paint, a decorated flower pot complete with artificial flowers, a set of heart-shaped ruby earrings, and a "trophy" made out of a candlestick. Hard to believe two little preschoolers made me cry at 6:30 a.m., but it's true. :blush: It was the sweetest, most pure Mother's Day I've had to date and I loved every minute of it.

Hubby's about to fire up the grill to cook us a nice London Broil and some corn and I think I'll even have a sundae made out of Edy's Girl Scout Samoa Cookies ice cream tonight while watching Deadwood on HBO.

Oh, and I haven't lifted a finger all day. I do believe I'm in heaven! :biggrin:

A big second...

to all those Mothers' Day greetings. My mom's been gone twenty-five years now, but I did my best. In the UMC, the lectionary for today is Luke 15 - the three "lost" parables - the lost sheep, the lost coin, the lost son. I sang "The Ninety and Nine," an old hymn about the shepherd's search for the one lost sheep. It was my mom's favorite solo for my older brother to sing. I made it through two services without choking up. Who knows? Maybe something drifted up...

Well, I'm in the doghouse this mother's day. I planned a trip to the beach with my wife, a mother of 2, for mother's day and all she wanted was a @#&$* card. I have been working 13 hr shifts at night here at UAB for the past 2 days, and I have 2 more to go. I think I'll try for simplier next year, I'll never understand women. Happy Mother's Day to Everyone, and ladies remember to go easy on us, we try.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

I understand...

more reasons why you want to stomp UAB...

 

[UAB-CT]

Yeah, but let's not start that again

 

[TIDE-HSV]

Ok...

I won't bring it up again if you won't...

 

[UAB-CT]

You're alright Earle. Condolences to you, on mom's day, I think you're a good son to honor your mom the way you do. I hope it's been a good one for ya. Wish me luck on my better half. Hope it doesn't rain.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

Well...

it may be too late to wish you luck, but, here goes anyway...

 

[Bamadev]

Thanks everyone!

I had a really great day yesterday BUT today has been even better! We had our chapter's golf tournament today and I got to meet Coach Shula and had my picture made with him. Then, total surprise, Brodie showed up with John Croyle so I had my picture made with both of them as well! Ah, what a wonderful day it is!!!!!!!!

My hubby had a left a message on my cell just to make sure I was still breathing

ps - UAB - I would love a trip to the beach for Mom's Day!! Good job (IMO)!

 

[TIDE-HSV]

I think...

UAB's taken. But hang around... :biggrin:

 

[Bamadev]

UAB's taken. But hang around... :biggrin:

LOL, I'm taken too - I was just trying to help his ego by stating I would love a trip to the beach for Mother's Day. I guess it did kind of sound like I was "hitting" on him. :biggrin:

Instead, I will take a trip to the Bahamas in a little over 3 weeks for my 10 year wedding anniversary! Counting the days!!!!!!!!

 

[Beat auburn]

I "had" to work part of Mother's Day, but I was in Aruba so all was good. My kids took good care of me before I left. Lots of cards and goodies.

 

[TIDE-HSV]

I know, Dev...

You just left me an opening that I couldn't pass up...

 

[Bamadev]

You just left me an opening that I couldn't pass up...

Yep, and I'm blaming it all on the grass cutting at the golf course this morning - yeah, that's the ticket...the grass has affected my thinking for the day (and it had nothing to do with meeting CMS and BC) :biggrin: :biggrin:

[UAB-CT]

Great, I'll send you a card. I want to be a perfect 2 for 2 in disappointing Mother's Day.
