One of the good things about being a mother is that I get bragging rights. I don’t use them often. I like to save them for just the right occasion.

Today is one of those.

We’re having a rest and recuperation day. This weekend was fun. We had my whole fam damily here. As soon as they left, LightHusband’s mother and father arrived with nieces and nephews from his sister’s family. Then his sister and her husband came for dinner. So last night we had dinner for 12. Dinner for 14 on Saturday. Dinner for 12 last night. Yep … we’re ready for a low day. So it’s fishing and sewing and swimming and reading and …. what. ever.

LightBoy casually announced that he was taking his pole down to the Big Dock and drowning a worm. Here’s the result:

A twenty inch large mouth bass!  (LightHusband guesses it might have weighed over three pounds!!) Which he hooked, set, and caught … all by himself. Then he released it to live to tell the tale another day. But the grin tells the whole story. He’s one happy guy.
