When writing the title for today's post, I actually looked up the correct spelling of Mother's Day. I thought for sure that it should be Mothers' Day, but apparently the creator of the holiday -- Anna Jarvis -- wanted the spelling to be singular possessive as she meant for each family to honor their own mothers, rather than the mothers of the world. (BTW, everything I've read points to the fact that she was distraught over the commercialization of the holiday.)
My weekend included flowers, donuts*, Catan and other good things, but most of all time with my daughter -- who turned me into the crazy mother that I am. (Best time was probably pulling weeds with her in the garden -- no kidding!)
* If you want to know more about the homemade gluten free donuts -- I have a posting up at Going Gluten-Free.
