Happy Mother's Day! I posted a song for you on the Conversations side. Enjoy your day. If you're not a Mom (like me!), this is still a special day to remember "Mom". Bear Hugs! Kirk Here is a link that might be useful: Song

Awoke to rain, and it rained all day. There were minimal customers today at the g'houses, and I was thankful, after a grueling week leading up to the event today. My mother died about a week before Mother's Day last year. So this was the first 'special' day where it wasn't the first one without her. My dd and I visited her grave today and she, my mother and I were like the Three Musketeers. Our lives were very much intertwined. We lost not only a mother and a grandmother, but a delightful, loving and faithful friend and companion. By some standards, my Mama led a tragic and difficult life in her early years, but it never stopped her from being the most confidant, modest and capable woman I've ever known. She projected such an air of innocence and optimism, but you knew in her long life she'd seen a lot, and somehow integrated it into perspective and always tackled each hurdle with a smile and never looked back. She was our steadfast cheering section, lol. Always there to listen, to assure and to make us feel like there was no way but up and a sunny day. I was very blessed.

Happy Mother's Day, indeed! Even those of you ladies with no two-legged children are nurturing moms to your plants and your furbabies, so YOU, TOO!! And Sumala, that is the most gorgeous thing! I've never seen a hibiscus like that. Thanks for the virtual bouquet! Marcia

Happy Mother's Day to everyone. Patti-Come on down to TN & I will give you some cookies. I make mine with milk, dark & white cho.
