Recharging the batteries and enjoying family this Mother's Day weekend. But first,
I offer a few flowers--and thoughts--to those who happen to drop by. Enjoy!
"Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever
to have your heart go walking around outside your body." --Elizabeth Stone
"What feeling is so nice as a child's hand in yours? So small, so soft and warm,
like a kitten huddling in the shelter of your clasp." --Marjorie Holmes
"All babies need a lap." --Anonymous
"You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be
I had a mother who read to me." --Strickland Gillilan
"There are two lasting bequests we can give our children.
One is roots. The other is wings." --Hodding Carter, Jr.

"When I was a child, my mother said to me, 'If you become a soldier, you'll
be a great general. If you become a monk you'll end up as the pope.'

Instead I became a painter and wound up as Picasso." --Pablo Picasso
