I’m gonna keep it short today, because lunch is coming quick! Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there! I hope you all have a very special day!

Creation’s most unique and precious pearls
And heaven help us always to remember
That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.”

Today is a special day! In more ways than 1… Today, every American should remember the D-Day Invasion of WWII, June 6, 1944. That was the day that Allied forces invaded northern France by means of beach landings in Normandy. My grandfathers unit was there (Omaha Beach) and I have always felt a sense of pride and gratitude knowing what all those great men did for us 🇺🇸

The other thing that makes this a very special day is that today is my moms birthday! 🎂 A very special day indeed! 💥

You can’t send mom a Facebook Birthday message, because she’s not on Facebook 😊 BUT, she does read my BLOG … So feel free to drop a HB comment here if you’d like to. I’ll make sure she gets it 😊
Thanks mom for all you do! You are a linchpin! You hold it all together and make it all work. I don’t know what I would do without you 🙏🏻❤️
Happy Birthday! 🎈 I Love You! ❤️
“Thoughtful lady, that works so hard,
Always been there, my dear lifeguard.
Places others before herself,
Proud of pictures on her shelf.
When in pain, maintains here smile,
Multi-tasking, she’s versatile.
With all of this; time she finds,
Her love for us, constantly reminds.
On her birthday, just want to say,
I don’t know how, I will repay?
Eternally grateful, I hope she will see,
The greatest mother, she will always be.

I don’t know about you, but I’m about worn out! We are hosting Mother’s Day tomorrow & Im finally sitting down for the evening at 10:30… Jo said it reminds her of Christmas Eve, with all the cleaning and cooking 😊 I’m looking forward to cooking for my mom tomorrow. How about you?

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms out there! What would we do without you! ❤️

The year is moving right along & already, we find ourselves on the eve of Mothers Day… What are your plans this year? I mean, how are you going to let the most important lady in your life know that she’s special?
We usually go out to eat at a nice restaurant of her choosing… But you know that’s out this year…
Here’s a Short list –
- Hallmark card
- Gift Card
- Flowers
- Plants
- Candy
- Photos of myself 😆
- Gift Certificate
- Booze 🍸
- Koi

The more I think about it, the gift of time together is maybe the best thing to share with your mom. That and a bottle of wine 🍷 😆
Personally, I’m grilling steaks 🥩 for my mother on Mother’s Day! A nice visit and a good meal sounds like the ticket 🎫 to me.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms out there! What would we do without you! ❤️

Here is a small collage of the Birthday girl then and now. She’s only gotten more beautiful!
All the pictures I have are of her and me together. Literally ALL our pictures are of us together. I had to cut and crop to get a few of her without me in the frame. That says everything! ❤️ I’m the lucky one here ❤️ Happy Birthday Sweetheart! 💥
I just wanted to take a moment and say Happy Birthday to the ‘Best gal in the world’! We all love you and don’t know what we would do without you ❤️

H umor, never lose your sense of humor
D etermination you do have that great quality
A ttitude, yours is positive and felt by others
Y esterday is gone, tomorrow is not here, live today and enjoy the year.

Happy Birthday! Love Mark!
