Planning Your Perfect Day

What would your "perfect day" look like? Dream with me for a moment... It's 75 degrees out with a warm breeze floating through the air. The kids are squealing, running along the beach, chasing after our dog, Emma, and playing Frisbee. I set my book down and call them back to our blanket. Together we dive into the picnic basket we've prepared. There's no complaining about who-gets-what, and we're full before we even get to dessert, so we save it for later. We sit back and watch the sunset before heading home.

Sigh.

Doesn't that sound nice? How about you? What would your ideal day look like? Now imagine which components of it you could build into your Mother's Day celebration. You might not be able to get everything, of course (like a cooperative weather forecast), but certainly there are a bits and pieces of your dream that you can squeeze into your day as a gift to yourself.
