Happy Mother's Day . . .

I only wish I had photos of all the moms I'd like to honor today. Those who did their best and those still doing it. Moms who have passed, especially Jeanette, my mother Bernice, Tess (my surrogate Mom), my beautiful godmother Robbie, Aunt Caroline . . .

Moms who are my friends like Alice, Sally, Rosemary, Cathy, Cherie . . .

My Aunt May, cousins Nancy, Jean and Alice . . .

Moms who made the beds today and those who didn't . . .

Moms who work in offices, factories, hospitals and schools or at home; moms who drive the school bus and the car pools . . .

Moms who always know right where to find a bandaid but can't find their car keys . . .

Last, but not least, I want to honor the moms who have stood through the worst imaginable experience -- the loss of a child.

Let's honor them all today, think about where we'd be without them (we wouldn't!) and send them all our thoughts of love and peace.

Happy Mother's Day

I could think of one I'd like to thank for everything...I love you, momma. Thank you for everything...I'd be nothing without you. (insert pic of momma and I here that this thing won't let me copy into)
Happy Mother's Day
I love you

Thanks so much, Kay. We, too, had a grand Mother's Day - wee thought it would be unbearable, but it was not - it was happy - that was a wonderful surprise. Andy is taking all his food through the tube and it is so much easier than it was. So, we are allhaving our ups and downs, but we know to expect miracles and every day we have him is a miracle! I wear my bracelet at all times!
