Mother's Day

A mother is a person who, seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.  We know there is much more to being a mother than worrying about, if there will be enough pie to go around.  Mother's Day is May 8th and will be a great day to say "Thanks Mom", for all your hard work and loving care for our family.

Many of us never had the blessings of having a mother wake us each morning, tucking us in bed each night, reading to us when we were small.  Holding us close and telling us how much she loved us when we were hurt or having problems with our school lessons.  I always felt that my friends mothers were someone very special in the family.  I could see the concern and love shown each and every time I visited one of my school friends.  I missed that warmth in my life as a young boy.

Let's give thanks to all our mothers and those special people who might be filling in for our real mother.  Say something or give a special mother's day card expressing that special love for these special people.
