….and I landed in Savannah!
The whole “going to Tahoe” thing was a total fib. I won’t say lie because I told you guys I was going on a church retreat and I can’t put “lie” and “church” in the same sentence. It’s just wrong. What I really did was take a red eye on Saturday night to surprise my mom on Mother’s Day morning.
I love my mom. She lets me borrow her shoes! She also has an ipad and I do not, which automatically makes her cooler than me. And when I’m home, she draws me extra hot bubble baths, fluffs my pillows and brings me tea in bed.
She’s pretty awesome.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mamas out there. All of your love, compassion and supreme pillow fluffing skills are not taken for granted.

You are such a nice daughter! I tried to do the same, but it was too expensive & I’ll see her in 2 weeks anyway. Enjoy your time – I’m sure it’s great! I haven’t seen my mom in over 4 months, and it’s been way too long!

You are such a sweet heart.
And I love ribs too. If it weren’t for ribs, I might be able to go back to being a vegetarian again. There’s just some things soy just can’t do.
I wish I could’ve flown back home to Savannah to surprise my Momma for Mother’s Day! (New reader, and Savannah native). Loving your blog, and love that you’re from home, even more!
what a totally awesome surprise – i love stories like this!
have a wonderful time with your mom – i bet the expression on her face when she saw you was just priceless!
What a great way to surprise your mom! You are an awesome daughter!!
I surprised my mom with delivered flowers, but I think next year a surprise flight home is in order.
Enjoy your visit!!
You and your mom are both beautiful!
You are such a sweet daughter! I have to admit that whenever I see your mom comment on the blog, it just makes me admire your relationship. You clearly love each other so much! I hope to have as wonderful a relationship with my daughter when she is all grown up as you have with your mom! Have a wonderful visit with her.
How awesome! You know what my mom has an ipad too and I don’t either…our moms are way cooler. Hope you get to stay awhile in sweet Savannah. We have lots of new foodie places that have recently popped up. If you have any time I’d love to show you around.
Aww, sweet! Hope you’re enjoying your time with your Mom!
