Insert classical music in the background and the monologue of cooking show commentary in a heavy Italian accent as Austris makes homemade pizzas (which he learned to do in French class last week) for Mothers' Day! #lettingjoyin The day began with all of us snuggled in bed still in pajamas, reading aloud from the third book of the Narnia series, when this conversation happened.... Austris: 'Mom, you look beautiful even when you don't. To me, you will always be the most beautiful mom. That is what we celebrate on this day, how beautiful all moms are, even when they aren't. Fun fact! Did you know that moms do about 95% of everything for our survival? The other 5% is just fun. So moms are like real-life superheroes!' Dainis: 'Yes, mammīte, you are like Wonder Woman. Because her name is Diana and you are sometimes Diana.' I'm not sure I've ever felt as simultanesouly loved, appreciated and amused as I have felt today.
