Mother's Day

Brian and I spent the day at Robin's house to celebrate Mother's Day with her and Mary. Ed made us a wonderful lunch and Brittany made home-made ice cream.


Happy Mother's Day

Brian did a really sweet thing for me to celebrate Mother's Day this year. I'm not a mother yet, so we celebrated "Mother To Be Day" instead. About a month ago, I had my PODS unit delivered to the house so that I could go through all of my stuff and see what I wanted to sell in our garage sale. Most of the stuff was memories and things that I'd not seen or touched since my mom passed away 10 years ago. I found 2 of her precious cross-stich pieces among my things, one of which she had made especially for me about 20 years ago. The one that she made for me was of a lady with a young girl standing next to her and my mom had stitched a poem around them that talked about a mother's love for her daughter and that no matter how grown up the daughter becomes, she'll always be her little girl. Brian noticed how much the 2 pieces meant to me and had them matted, framed and covered in preservation glass to eventually be hung in the baby's room.
