Happy Mother's Day 2013













Although the air is cool and crisp today, the sun is bright. Mother Nature has been working overtime with her paintbox. The sun is dappling through trees, casting a lacework pattern on brilliant green grass. The sky is a cloudless azure blue. Fat buds in our garden are showing the slight pink color that foretells blossoms that will soon burst into being. What a beautiful Mother's Day!

Moms have the hardest, yet most rewarding job on earth. They defend their young like a Viking warrior, heal hurts with a single kiss, and solve problems that would puzzle Einstein. Moms are the heart and soul of home.

I borrowed this picture from my sister. It's my mom, baby sister, and me. I can still feel the love of that moment. Thinking of you today, Mom, and treasuring the memories.


















Whether you're Mom to two-leggers, four-leggers or both, we hope your day is spectacular and filled with many beautiful moments.
