"Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one. "

Mothers

If there were not a copyright on the words in the book Don't Put Headphones On The Cat by Rose Godfrey, I would add a couple quotes from that book. 

Rose's descriptions of the everyday life of a mother are accurate. 

I wish I had written this book. 

Becoming a mother is life changing. Raising a child to adulthood is a miracle. Speaking for myself, I know I made mistakes along the way, but no one could have loved their kids more than I did. I understand the meaning of unconditional love because I am a mother.

Happy Mother's Day to all my blog friends. I applaud each of you no matter what your circumstances are. Some of you are role models to nieces and nephews and just as important to them as a mother. God bless you for that. God bless all of us, our mothers who bore us, each of us in the next generation, and our children who are mothers doing their best to raise our grandchildren. One day a year just isn't enough time to celebrate the love of mothers.

I agree with you, one day is not enough.

Mothering is the toughest job you'll ever do and you never stop doing it, even when your children are grown.

Happy Mother's Day, Cici!

As the saying goes, God couldn't be everywhere so he created mothers. Happy Mother's Day.

Whenever I feel sad that I usually don't get to spend Mother's Day with my kids, I think about how often they call me and how close we are. That one day doesn't matter in the big picture!

Happy Mother's Day!

Our Mothers Day was a few weeks ago, but I hope you had a good one.

Very nicely said, CiCi. I hope you had a lovely Mother's Day.

Hope you had a lovely Mother's Day CiCi. I remember you once said that your daughter wishes you a Happy Father's Day too because you were both. I loved hearing she does that.

Hope you're good and enjoying Spring.
