After my mom picked me up from the airport, I surprised her with a pottery-making class. I don’t think I would recommend trying this with your 79-year-old mom if she has arthritis 🙃. My mom has been sore all day today. She did have fun and said she forgot about all of her worries for the day. However, she is not interested in becoming a potter anytime soon 😂. I talked my brother into joining us. We did get in some good laughs together. We enjoyed our drive home at sunset by the beautiful Flathead Lake.
