Great Day

I had a terrific Mother's day - even without my Mom - not that I did not think of her all day! I love my Mom and Miss her terribly. she was a terrific mom! she was an inspiration to me throughout my entire life - even now when she is not here - I still find myself thinking about what she would do - what she would say etc.... Today was good because my family let me just relax. I slept in - I had a great time at church - then I went to a great movie with Kari - my oldest. That was after I received great presents - a Kindle, perfume and candy. All three of my girls called or wished me a Happy Mother's Day. I had a great dinner and kisses from my granddaughter.
Family is all we have. Being a mom can be a thankless job - but God entrusts us to teach our children right and wrong. Although there are times I feel like I fail - I trust that the seeds were planted and they will all grow up into the wonderful young women I know they are. My mom went through her trials with each of us - but we all turned out okay in the end!! So happy mothers day Mom. Thank you for your love! And thank you my dear family for a GREAT DAY!!
