I'm so honored that mom chose to spend her Spring Break in Charleston! It gives me an excuse to be a tourist in my own town all week, which is always fun.Mom got in around 11am, and I officially went on vacation for the rest of the week. We started with a quest for lunch on Daniel Island, where we ran into two of my work buds - but since the Mediterranean restaurant didn't have ranch dressing for mom's salad, we ended up having Mexican food lunch! We then took a rainy driving tour of Mt. Pleasant, which is where I go to the gym, church, doctor/dentist, and shopping, so it was fun to show mom a 'day in the life' of me.
Next, I surprised mom with a trip to the South Carolina Aquarium right on the shore of Charleston Harbor in downtown! The perfect rainy-day activity. Afterward, more driving tours of downtown, the Market where I showed mom the unique-to-Charleston sweet grass baskets, and we finished with a delightful cupcake snack over on King St.
Dinner will be back home on Daniel Island tonight - I'm so blessed to be able to cook dinner for the woman who has cooked countless meals for me in her time. I love having mom here and am looking forward to a blessed week with her!
