Happy Mother's Day

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh

Happy Mother’s Day! Hope you all are enjoying the day with your family.

Mothers Day is a special day… but to my family, this mother’s day is twice as special as it also happens to be Mom’s birthday (and a special birthday at that – 50! But don’t tell her I told you!)

We’ve been celebrating her birthday all week long! On Friday, mom and I headed down to Kansas City for a girls overnight stay. We shopped at Antique Stores on the way down, stayed at a hotel there on the Plaza, did some more shopping… We found some nice little treasures that we’ll be sure to share pictures with all of you soon! So be watching!

Wishing you, Mommy… a very Happy Birthday

and a Lovely Mother’s Day!!

"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts."

~Washington Irving
