This is the first year in over 60 that the world has not celebrated the momminess of Marie Fey McCarthy. What a dread loss. My heart is very frozen with the loss, but very glad the journey is ended. Her impact is so far above known price that words could never paint nor numbers calculate her worth.
I will miss her all the days of my life, and I will be glad all the stuff of me that is good is her gift to me for the rest of my journey.
Moms are lovely. I is one of dem, and when I'm not wallowing in selfullness, I sometimes remember how blessed I am to have my kidknits. God is gracious to give us such happy extenders.
Happy Mother's Day to you. We know that your own children are blessed because they have more of that love you give that we feel from you around GSC - - and we all feel so loved when you share here.
i gave my mom a robot vacuum cleaner because her back hurts a lot from helping her husband around (stroke victim)
i got the remote for the vacuum and told him it's for him (his good hand) because i know how much he loves clickers (remotes)
this thing is awesome. we had so much fun with it. they are talking to it like it's a pet.
anyway, before my sister and i got there, my mom was too tired to vacuum. so we gave the little robot a go of it, and it did an EXCELLENT job
they are moving from their one-bedroom to two-bedroom apartment next week in their senior place so i thought it would be an extra nice gift
one of the best things i've picked out in a long time
just wanted to let you all know how happy i am because it went over so well and they both are very thankful
this thing will go around for 2 hours on one charge and switch from carpet to floor. when it gets worn out, it finds it's little charger house all by itself and goes in there
i'm happy
still so sad about my mom's husband being so helpless and frustrated and watching my mom work like a dog
life sure can suck
(so sorry toppie)
happy mother's day to all moms and single dads and caregivers and pet lovers and just all you great nurturers

Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers.
And yes, Chef, tomorrow will be hard for you. I am so sorry about your mom.
I am having about 30 of my family tomorrow. My mom is 79 and I love her very much. She bore 8 children, and has been a superb example.
Cherish your family.

Those of us who, on Mother's Day, feel bereft,
Our celebration may be for the legacy they left.
Our moms were for us a cleft in the Rock,
Their kindness and love was not empty talk.
In honor of them we live.
In honor of them we give.
And help make their view from heaven,
A happy Mother's Day rejoicing.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY
How God created mother
God took the fragrance of a flower,
The majesty of a tree,
The gentleness of morning dew,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The beauty of a twilight hour,
The soul of a starry night
The laughter of the rippling brook,
The grace of a bird in flight,
Then God fashioned from these things
A creation like no other,
And when His masterpiece was through,
He called it simply .....MOTHER.
My mother kept a garden

I, unfortunately, have no relationship with my mother-never had.
I therefore admire the strong woman who take that role sweetly and gladly, and let their love shine in the eyes of their children.
To all of you who proudly wear the title of "Mom"-I salute you!
