HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Mother’s Day is the special day once a year to celebrate your first best friend and the person you always turn to when you need advice. I am blessed to have had a wonderful Mom, and although she is no longer here, she is always in my heart. I am also blessed to be the mother of two wonderful young women, who surprise me on the daily with their caring hearts, their wisdom, their perseverance, their kindness, and their beauty! {and then there are my little people, I could write a whole book about how I adore and cherish them!}

Mother’s Day is also a marvelous time to show your love for all the other women you adore, your daughters, granddaughters, friends, aunts, grandmothers, the list could go on! I hope you celebrate your Mom, or are celebrated as a Mom on Mother's Day. Like I just told my kids the other day: " No one is ever going to love you as much as your Mama!" I found a few quotes I love that I wanted to share with all of you. I hope they make you smile as they did me.

A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take.

Cardinal Mermillod

The art of mothering is to teach the art of living to children.

Elaine Heffner

Mother is the name for God in the lips and hearts of little children.

William Makepeace Thackery

Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible.

Marion C. Garretty

In the end, mothers are always right. No one else tells the truth.

Love this Mother’s Day post…the beautiful photos of gorgeous flowers and I especially love the green hydrangeas and pink roses in that fabulous Sucre container….my mom used to say that we should always try to make someone’s heart happy…..the key to living a happy life….you reminded me of that in your closing statement…and one of the most wonderful things that my Sweetie said to me when she was a little one was “Grandma you make my heart happy” … and she makes mine happy too!
I know you had a most wonderful Mother’s Day!
