No news on the horizon

An enjoyable visit from a close friend and his daughter Marty and Hannah, a lovely walk downtown by the river, and a stroll around the mall filled my day.  It's nice to have nothing to say for a change.  Tomorrow is mothers day, and I wish all mothers a wonderful day, and all those with mothers warm thoughts.
There are two women in particular who I want to acknowledge, my mother, and my friend Paty.  My mom really enjoyed being a mom, which is good since she had eight kids, which produced 16 grand kids, and 10 great grand kids (so far).  Not exactly ZPG!  But a great mom who would do anything for her kids especially make them responsible and give them the courage to find what inspired them.
Paty is a friend I grew up with from High school, she married her high school sweetheart and I re-met her through face book.  It has been fun getting to know her again, she also has two children and one grandchild.  Recently her son-in-law was in a fatal car accident, and she has been asking for prayers for her children and grandchildren.  Her energies have been focused on her family and I know they depend on her bravery and strength and my thoughts are with her. 
There are many incredible mothers out there, my new soon to be daughter in law who is gentle with her son and the love shines through for all to see who was recently here caring for during my recovery is just one of the many I know and have met.  To all of you may your day be filled with love and happiness.

  2. Tina, I hope you had a wonderful mothers day. Sorry about the roller coaster ride you are on, but things will soon calm down. You are right about grandma, she was the best. A day does not go by that I don't think of her. Love and kisses - Holly
