Happy Mother's Day!

Here's wishing you a Mother's Day that's filled with every pleasure, And a future that's as happy as the memories you treasure!
 Mothers are the gardeners of wind-blown wild flowers. They water them with happy tears, happy with them many years, even as the hours ring with sweet, sad melodies sighing through their bowers.

I hope you enjoy seeing all the butterfly pictures I took last week.

The only thing that never needs any break to replenish itself is a mother’s love.
"When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child." by: Sophia Loren
“I realized when you look at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know.” by: Mitch Albom 
“Mothers and their children are in a category all their own. There’s no bond so strong in the entire world. No love so instantaneous and 
forgiving.” by: Gail Tsukiyama
(MOTH)
M-O-T-H-E-R
“M” is for the million things she gave me,
“O” means only that she’s growing old,
“T” is for the tears she shed to save me,
“H” is for her heart of purest gold;
“E” is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
“R” means right, and right she’ll always be,
Put them all together, they spell “MOTHER,”
A word that means the world to me.

"We never know the love of the parent until we become parents 
ourselves.by: Henry Ward Beecher
There is only one pretty child in the world, and every mother has it. ~Chinese Proverb
“To describe my mother would be to write about a hurricane in its perfect power. Or the climbing, falling colors of a rainbow.” by: Maya Angelou
"Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love." by: Stevie Wonder 
Mothers hold their children's hands for a short while, but their hearts forever.
Wishing you songbirds to welcome each morning, Wishing you flowers to brighten each spring, Wishing you laughter, and sharing and caring, And all of the joy that each new day can bring! 
XO, 
Dee

  6. Those are all such wonderful quotes. I think I like the one that Sophia Lauren said the best. That we always have thoughts of our child. We never think alone. Boy is that true!!! Hope you had a wonderful mother's day too.
