Happy Happy Mother's Day!

Even tho' Mother's Day is tomorrow, I have had a lovely day already! Bill brought me carnations and took me to a White Mountain Symphony Orchestra Concert with the Northland Pioneer College Master Chorale, and they did all my favorite music. And here I am with my very first ever Grandma shirt that came in the mail from Karl and Charla and children! What fun! And, of course, my happy reminiscing about my own Mother, Grandmothers, and my children has been very sweet this day.

We wish all of you gals in our family a very happy Mother's Day. We salute you for your love, endurance, optimism, and courage, as you bravely and cheerfully raise this very chosen generation, in this challenging yet wonderful world. It warms our hearts when we hear our children say the very same happy phrases to their children that we used to say to them, and see how well the children and the grandchildren are growing and blossoming. Our only wishes are that we hope to see you all more often, that love and harmony will increase, and that the Lord's very choicest blessings will be upon all of you. To those of you who are mothers (and that of course includes Melina who is about to give birth :-) we wish you a very Happy Mother's Day!
