Mommy couldn't get time off work to go to the Mothers Day Tea at Danica's school, so Amma went in her place. I was thrilled to go, but it was a rather raucous afternoon spent with over-the-hill excited kindergarten children. I was asked beforehand what I would like to drink lemonade or iced tea. I voted for iced tea, and I pictured sitting at little tables enjoying a cup of tea and a cookie while a little entertainment was provided. Wrong, wrong, wrong! It was a chance to see a kindergarten class in action, and participate in a craft with them. That would have been fun...if...we hadn't had to squeeze into pint sized chairs, around pint sized tables, and deal with glitter glue being spread around by over-enthusiastic children. What a sticky...glittery...gooey mess I was at the end of that project.
It was a fun and memorable afternoon though, and I was glad I got to stand in for Mommy on such a special day.
Above and below is Danica with one of her best buddies. They are a rascally pair at times.

Little brothers and sister were invited to the party too, and Danica spent a lot of time playing with the babies while Amma sat and watched the antics. |

Paper flowers were made for the mother's hair, so I wore mine with pride, but gave it to Mommy at the end of the day. |

Danica spent most of her time playing with the little brothers and sisters at the party |

At the end of the day it was time to go outside and fly the kites. Danica preferred to play on the equipment though. |
