A Day for Mommies!

There comes a day to pause and thank our mothers - to give a tribute and venerate them. Today is the day. I started my day with a phone call to my mom (she's out of town). To hear her voice triggers memories of recent to the very past. I have the MOST WONDERFUL mother in the world. She has taught me to be the mother I am and I love her and cherish her. I miss you mom! I love you!

Today was not a typical mother's day for me. It was one of reflection, understanding, prayer & love! I LOVE being a mommy. I am so honored to be the mommy of Nealy and Brayden. They love me unconditionally and I definitely return that love.

Here are the sweet cards from my WONDERFUL
family!....The book is amazing with such heartwarming
quotes and presents a multifaceted portrait of Mother....
beautiful images from around the world.
Two of my favorite quotes (the best of both worlds):

"Sons are the anchors of a mother's life." - Sophocles, Greek playwright


"Mothers of daughters are daughters of mothers and have remained so, in circles joined to circles, since time began." - Signe Hammer, American author

These are the Mother's Day pots we made in my
kindergarten class! The hearts and bumble bees are
the kids' thumb prints!
I hope all mommies out there had a memorable Mother's Day!
