Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It's learning to look past life's imperfections

Happy Mothers Day!

I wrote this last year for my Mom
& never sent it to her.
Things My Mother Taught Me… that she may not know
My Mother is the strongest women I know.
She taught us not just by words, but more by example & action.
I'm one of many, proud to call her Momma.
Things my Mother taught me.......
That no matter what happens, you can keep going.
There are some things you can’t change, only your reaction.
The love of nature, feeling the soil and being a small part of the Bloom.
That it’s OK not to have all the answers.
Home-made cocoa is always the best
The joy of cooking, with very little.
There are times for silence
What Butts are really for
.
The Joy of books & learning
Its not where you are in life, It’s how you live it
Always to leave a place in better condition than you found it
You have to be happy where you are, before you can be happy anywhere else
That money is not the value of a person
Everyone has gifts, you just have to find yours
That if you have a little, you have a lot
To use our hands to create, and a gift made, is a gift of your-self
Mistakes can be forgiven
Every child has to walk their own path, not ours
To stand for what you believe in
To make my own choices, and live with the results.
That when adult children ask what do you think, they don’t always need an answer.
Supper is ready when your chores are done
We are the example
No matter what,
She will always Love me

The Considerate Wife


The mini is almost complete. Camping this weekend delayed the progress some, I was only able to knit about an inch. Simple mindless knitting but great for group setting where your attention is pulled in many directions. The knitting is done, I just need to add the buttons. Guess I HAVE to visit Grinny Possum this morning!…Photo coming soon!

I had a wonderful find at Meijer yesterday. My oldest daughter Danielle & I were at the check-out after finding a few plants for our back deck and her yard. The lady in front of us had this wonderful plant hanger! It’s a Mothers Day Special they have running, the plant and stand (your choice of 2 stands) for $20.00! Being the wonderful considerate wife that I am, (ok quit laughing and don’t spew your coffee on the keyboard) I saved him the time and trouble of bringing it home!
