Happy Mother’s Day

I don’t usually like to post on Sundays, but today my heart is filled with so much love and happiness that I just want to share some of it with you, my online friends.

I hope your home is filled with kind words of love and loud shouts of children’s playing voices.   I hope you get slightly burnt toast, hand drawn cards from school, and paper flowers.

I hope you think on the memories of your own dear mother and forgive hers and your faults, and focus on her tender care of you.  I hope she is still around so you can give her a tender hug filled with love and gratitude.

I hope your beautiful children call you, or better yet, come by and fill your home with grandchildren crawling or running around and getting into everything.  I hope your home is filled with the music of love permeating all around you.

The words of this song have been playing through my mind all morning.  I hope you don’t mind if I share them with you–

“I see my mother kneeling with our family each day

I hear the words she whispers as she bows her head to pray

Her pleas to the Father quiet all my fears

And I am thankful- LOVE is spoken here.”

Happy Mother’s Day!
