Sunday is Mother's Day. Each year I find myself looking back on the lives of our wonderful children and in the last 6 years, our delightful grandchildren. To say that I am blessed to be a Mother would be an understatement to say the least. Somehow, in spite of my many inperfections, my husband and I have managed to raise two bright, loving, kind and wonderful children. As we watch them with their children we are constantly amazed at their patience and seemingly endless supply of kindness and love. It should go without saying that having grandchildren has made our lives so much fuller. All it takes is a look from one of them or hearing them call our names, Mimi and Pop, and we are clay ready to be molded into whatever they need. I thank God everyday for our children and grandchildren.
Mother's Day also brings with it a bit of sadness and melancholy as I find myself missing my mother and grandmother. They were such fine examples of what a mother should be and how I wish they could be here to see their grandchildren and great grandchildren. I feel that they are looking down from heaven and they are smiling.
From one very blessed mother I would like to wish all of you mother's a very happy day!
