grace like rain
falling from the clouds
arms wide open
the grave, conquered
stronger
darkness < Light

mothers & son

it was a multi-celebratory weekend. yuee's treinta y cinco began with a pre-bday star trek cake delivery to the trekkie geek's office on friday, ultimate frisbee in the evening with ji's utd folks, a midnight showing of star trek at IMAX, and a late nite/early morn dinner/breakfast at cafe brazil. the last time we were there was with other counselors after youth group on a friday night when we were still dating...

day-of bday saturday was sleeping in (albeit to an earlier-than-usual 1pm for him), a surprise (and rather large and a dumbfounded what-to-do-with-this-from-a-guy) flower arrangement from mama kao, the unveiling of the requested (and suspected) ARB locker & compressor to outfit the off-roading vehicle, listening to max bassin' it @ a jazz concert, gratis berryberry yogurt and a leisurely evening at soho. the restaurant recommender stood us up but phooey joined. both music + food were most excellent.

sunday, we worshipped to a different beat with a reconnected couple, dim-summed for mother's day w/ g's fam, napped, and headed to the final surprise -- yet more ultimate -- w/ n00bie oikies from dcfc and some way old dcfc old-timers... durian and green tea cupcakes for all. well, durian consumed by a select brave few. :P

both mothers will be drinking it up this year w/ red wine ... the son is now a semi-connoisseur or at the very least, advocate for spirited health -- to "live long and prosper." we bless and love you, mommies!
