My Son was so Sweet on Mothers Day
When you have boys, you come to realize that at a certain age, the spoiling of mom stops or at least slows down. Good night kisses are not cool any more; hugs in public.. No Way! Well, when holidays or special days come up, I really don’t expect anything over and above, but this Mothers Day, my son was so sweet. He made my day.
Now one thing I am used to… on weekends if we don’t have to be up for anything, the kid and the hubby both sleep in late. Half my day is over before they roll out. Well DS got up and decided he was going to make me breakfast.. lunch, I mean. The bad thing was, I really wanted waffles. By the way… I don’t own a waffle maker.. never have. So I piled the kid in the car and went and bought me a waffle maker for my own Mothers Day present. HAHA
Unbeknownst to me… there is an art to making waffles! What a mess. DH ended up coming to help my Son and they finally figured out how the waffle iron worked and I finally got my waffles! They were delicious and totally work waiting for. My son was so patient although I am sure he thought I was crazy. haha
No, this is not the first present I have bought for myself. I usually by myself birthday and Christmas gifts too. Oh and I wrap them and act surprised when I open them too LOL Hubby thinks I am nuts but I say, at least I get what I really want.
My son made sure I got what I wanted this Mothers Day! Hope you did too!

Happy Mother’s Day from the Two Classy Chics
We just wanted to take a few moments this evening to wish all of our moms, grandmother’s and moms-to-be a very HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
My hubby made be breakfast in bed this morning and then this afternoon he took me out to dinner for steaks and seafood! Yummy! I also got to spend about 2 hours with my daughter and grand-daughter earlier today and they presented me with a beautiful hanging basket of flowers. Every year my DD gets me a hanging basket and I love that!!
Anyway, We hope you all had a fabulous day today with your families. Anything fun and exciting? Get any special pampering or gifts? We would love to hear all about it!

Ding the Duck – Has a Boyfriend!!!
If you have been following our blog for the past month you will have read several blog posts where I shared some photos of some local Mallard ducks who are now calling our property their home. For the past few weeks “Ding” the female duck has had 4 male suitors. Well, I think she has finally decided on her man because for the past 3 days she has been hanging out with “Stinger” an awful a lot and we haven’t seen her with the other 3 male contenders.
I am assuming that she has finally chosen her man and hopefully little “dingettes” and little “stingers” will soon be on their way. Yes, her name is “Ding” and the man she has decided on is named “Stinger”. LOL LOL LOL yes we name things around here!
I am going to keep watching because last year we were blessed with 7 ducklings so I am hoping for another healthy batch soon! You go Ding girl!
