A Happy Mother's Day

Today while attending church in Morgan Hill, I noticed a very blond little girl singing in the Primary choir. Blond wispy hair, petite body, and a very relaxed happy way about her. She reminded me so much of my mother at that age. From the pictures I mean. Actually from this picture taken in 1931 when my Mom was 2 years old.


There was just something about that little girl today. Or maybe it's because my Mom is on my mind so much today. Mother's Day to me, will always be dedicated to her.


I've read before, actually by Pope Paul VI:
"Every mother is like Moses.
She does not enter the Promised Land.
She prepares a world she will not see."


I also want to share a quote my mother loved, and so do I:

"A Young mother recounts: "It was one of the worst days. The washing machine broke down, the telephone kept ringing, my head ached, and the mail carrier brought a bill I had no money to pay. Almost to the breaking point, I lifted my one year old into his high chair, leaned my head against the tray, and began to cry. Without a word, my son took his pacifier out of his mouth and stuck it in mine."

Happy Mothers Day!!!
