Great picture sara. What a true portrait you 'paint' here with your words today. Happy Mother's Day to you and your mom tomorrow.
Hugs,
moms are Gods greatest invention.
Last night my grown son came home from spending some time at our older daughter Jessica's house *1 hour away. He walked in about 10PM and proceeded to tell me all about his weekend. (Jeff Dunhem on Friday night with Jessica and Steven-his graduation gift, job hunting and so on). He gave me the biggest hug and kiss before I went to bed. I could feel those burly arms and remembered how I used to hold him so closely to ME! Being a Mom has been the greatest rewarding adventure of my life!
Have a wonderful Mother's day!
Connie
Beautifully expressed Sara
