My Mother's Day Mantra

Yesterday, on the way to preschool, my five year old twins told me what they could make me for 'breakfast in bed' on Mother's Day.  However, there were many caveats to what was truly available for my 'picking' if they were preparing it on their own.
  • Toast - with strawberry jelly, said my son Kaiden.  Madyson piped up and reminded him that Daddy had banned them from using the toaster since the electricity problem - and that it can kill them (I can't even imagine the story that goes with this....I'll have to ask my husband what happened sometime).  So they changed their mind - just bread with jelly.
  • A Banana
  • Orange Juice
  • Cereal...any kind I want!  And they both agreed that Madyson had poured milk in the past and that she would not make a mess.
  • They would hand deliver it on an old metal 'breakfast in bed' tray they had in the basement.  It has a fox, bear, and beaver on the front of it that they took from their Great-Grandma's house a couple years ago.  One of the little support legs is broke, but they assured me it still worked.
