To All The Mothers













Thank you dear mothers for all that you do.  For applauding our
successes and for wiping away our tears.  For guiding us through
each step of our lives from that very first one.  For making a house
a home.  For teaching us to sew or cook and for proudly 
displaying each piece of our artwork.  For being that person
in life we can always turn to no matter what.

Thank You!


Happily Joining ~

Sunny Simple Sundays


Bentley joins me in wishing you all a very
Happy Mother's Day!

Big Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

    Aww, that was lovely. Even though we're not "officially" moms I know our four-legged sons love us, because they are our babies.

    I take it as a compliment now when perfect strangers, or the bus driver, when I put my students on the bus, or the mailman, wish me a Happy Mom's Day. It makes me smile now. There was a time when I laid low because my heart ached - but not any more.

    Enjoy your day with your mom. Happy Mom's Day!

      It used to make me feel sad too, but I am more at ease with it now. And yes, our four legged one are our babies.

    Susan, Your flowers groupings are beautiful. Love the poem; I think you are mom to many-little ones who you give a smile to or a warm hug. Yes, furbabies definitely count. Have a wonderful day!
    Hugs, Noreen

    Yes, Susan, our mothers are pretty darned special.

    You still have yours with you, so give her an extra hug this Mother's Day!

    It's never the same once they are no longer with us.

    Your photos are lovely. Susan

    Your photographs made me smile, thank you! My favorite was the sewing vignette, I guess it reminded me of simpler times, so pretty! Happy Mother's Day!
