HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY


Some flowers for Mother's Day - actually the first wild flowers I have seen this year. I'll have to look them up in my trusty book.
My mom passed away many years ago - and we never really had the chance to say goodby. I think about her very often - just little things that I know she would enjoy. She never got to see my place up north - I think she would approve. And when Mother's Day rolls around, it is especially hard. But I have many, many good memories of her - and every time I look in the mirror, I see more of her in me.
I am a Mother! I have two beautiful, intelligent vibrant step daughters who I consider my own. Stacey and Jodie. I did it the right way. I married into them. Jodie sent me a Mother's Day card that said "Don't have children - have grandchildren!" She proceeded to ask how she could accomplish this without having children? Another card I cherish.
I have Rejean's Mom. I love her with all my heart. But it is not the same as your own Mom.
Happy Mother's Day Mom.
See Ya By

Happy Mother's Day Janet!!!!!

I am sorry that I didn't get a card out..... I have been so caught up in my travels that my life has been on hold!

I hope you have a wonderful day and wanted to let you know that I will be thinking about you.

xoxo
