Sounds lovely! I'm not a mother (some here might disagree with that heheh).
But I miss my mother very much. When my brother was here to get the
furniture he and my other brother wanted I cleaned out a dresser and
discovered she'd saved years worth of Mother's Day cards I'd sent to her.
She was a very sweet woman and I miss her every day. Happy Mother's Day to
all of you!
