Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers out there.  Mothers come in many different forms and one doesn't necessary have to have children to be a mother.  I consider mothers to have a caring and love for someone or something.

The card today is a Mothers Day card for my daughter.  We just came back from celebrating with the family, my mother, my daughter and my daughter in law, their spouses and children.  It started off to be a picnic, however, we did end up inside as the rain drops started.  It didn't changed the atmosphere. We had lunch and my son made the dessert....."Dirt" without the worms.  YEH, Very Good!
