A beautiful day indeed. We started to celebrate Mother's Day by eating our desserts first! I had three little desserts and a cup of black coffee. I realize that really sugary desserts leave me feeling slightly ill. I am having a less and less difficult time resisting sugar. This a gift to me.
We enjoyed a lovely dinner at a local restaurant. I have become comfortable with keeping mental track of how much I am eating and what I am eating. Another gift to me.
I enjoyed the afternoon with the family. My family is a gift to me and surpasses any and all kinds of food, sweets or any other kind of substance which I could possibly abuse. Knowing this is a gift to me.
I have a wonderful Mother. She is not perfect. I have learned to allow her to be herself and I will no longer try to change her. She has learned and is learning to allow me to be me and is not trying to change me. We have a balanced relationship and a kind, well-intentioned and healthy one. I have learned to not blame her for the food I put into my mouth. I alone am responsible for my actions. I love my Mother. Happy Mother's Day Mom...thanks for all good years and for all the good years yet to come!
