My Mother

This is for you, Mother!

To my Mother

My "Happy Mother's Day" logo is from

I don't know how she feels about Being on the Internet, but......

Here's a picture of my Mother.

Isn't she beautiful? Would you believe was 75 on May 20th.? And this is a recent picture! Sorry, Mother! Now everyone knows your age!

The May angel below and the description That follows it is used with Penny's permission. Thank you very much, Penny! Click on the Angel to visit Penny's wonderful site.

The angel of May brings the blush and promise of spring. May's angel rejoices with us as we take heart at the sight of trees and shrubs in bloom and relish our anticipation of the fruits to come.
This angel of spring reminds us that this is the time of awakening the seed within ourselves. Perhaps we have a deep longing, an artistic talent never explored, or a friendship never quite attempted.
The angel of May will help us discover this potential, nurturing our spirits so we can dare to fulfill this hidden promise and bring forth the fruits of a life fully lived.

M-O-T-H-E-R

"M" is for the million things she gave me, "O" means only that she's growing old, "T" is for the tears she shed to save me, "H" is for her heart of purest gold; "E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining, "R" means right, and right she'll always be, Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER", A word that means the world to me. ~~~Howard Johnson (c. 1915)~~~

My Mother loves gardening, so Mother, Here are a few gardening tools for you!

And now for Some Motherly Advice....we've all heard! And probably more than once!

See, Mother, I did remember your advise!

Always change your underwear; you never know when you'll have an accident.

Don't make that face or it'll freeze in that position.

Be careful or you'll put your eye out.

What if everyone jumped off a cliff? Would you do it, too?

You have enough dirt behind those ears to grow potatoes! And while you're at it, scrub that crusty neck!

Close that door! Were you born in a barn?

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Don't put that in your mouth; you don't know where it's been!

If you fall and get hurt, I'm going to whip you!

If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times!

What will the neighbors think?!!

Because I said so!

And what would Mother's Day be Without flowers? So, Mother, Here are some roses for you!

And some more flowers!
