Happy Mother’s Day!!!

My mother has been gone for a very long time now.  I miss her a lot.  She had a lot to deal with, 8 children plus health problems.  I miss her each day of the year but it really hits home as Mother’s Day draws near.

My daughter and son-in-law are taking me to Red Lobster to eat today for Mother’s day.  This is my favorite place to eat.  I love the shrimp there, so I always have some version of it.

My daughter got me a beautiful little cake for Mother’s Day.  It is frosted angel food which is my favorite cake next to pineapple upside down cake.  It has a heart shaped cookie on top with mom written on the cookie.

My son sent me a beautiful card and will call.  It is such a privilege to be a mother.

Don’t forget to hug your mother tomorrow and tell her you love her.  Rejoice if you are still lucky enough to have her with you.

Have a blessed weekend.  Stay safe and be happy!!

Beth

  16. Happy Mother's Day Beth! My mother has been gone seven years now. She is missed, she was a spunky gal, but had to be, to be married to my dad. She is the reason I named our new boat Gypsy Rose. My dad was an adventurer and mom was raised in a family that didn't travel more than 100 miles from home. After marring dad she visited almost every state at one point or another. Therefore; her family referred to her as the gypsy in the family. Her name was Rosa, but everyone called her Rose.
    Here is wishing you a wonderful Mother's Day, have fun at red Lobster. Connie:)
