Good Morning & Happy Mother’s Day

#1 - My Mom - I’m blessed that she is still with me. She still nurtures me today by always willing to help with what she can and being a good listener. She’s a wonderful Mom

#2 - My Grandma (RIP) - She nurtured me in a firm way, which I loved. She was the strongest woman I have ever known and I can’t thank her enough for not coddling me. Since I loved spending a lot of time with her, I thank her for helping me be the strong woman I am today. She was a great lady!

#3 - My Friends Mom/Neighbor when I was a kid - She was like a second mom to me.

My Aunt -RIP
A woman I used to babysit for a lot who always found reasons to get me out of my house
A dear friend / coworker - RIP who I miss every day

My mother was not very motherly, but I have been fortunate to have surrogate mothers along the way.
My best friend in college was always caring and looking out for me. Her first words to me, before we even really knew each other, were that I should put on slippers because it was cold!
(went to school in Buffalo)
Both of my mothers-in law. The first one I only knew for a short while because that marriage only lasted 5 years, but she embraced me as a daughter and I have never forgotten that. My 2nd one I knew for a lot longer and I still miss her to this day. Both were Jewish mothers and far more effusive with praise and love than I had ever experienced. I was vey lucky to have them in my life.

My Mom - I was lucky to have her, even if it wasn't for as long as I would have liked
and My Aunts - who made it a point to step in and do things that she would have done
My Grandma - who used to take me with her as she cared for others and set a fabulous example
and My MIL - who treats just like one of her own kids, and checks on me even when we're checking on her

Happy Mother's Day and welcome to our kind thread Diana.

Grandma Dolores will always be who I consider my mom. I am humbly beyond blessed God gave me her and Grandpa Sam. To know they are forever restored, at peace, with Him, plus that one day we will reunite along with Champ is grace upon grace.

Thinking of Pastor L, a dear friend and retired minister. She still gives love, faith, and encouragement to so very many.

Barbara, a friend God gave dad and I years ago who in His name is family.

So thankful to God always for each of you, too. Thank you for blessing my days

Happy Monday!

#1 - Quilt - I have a quilt my stepdad bought me when I was around 15. I love this quilt so much and I refuse to stop using it. It’s been patched up and sewn up many times.

#2 - Umbrella - It’s going to rain today, so I’ll be grateful to have it.

#3 - Vincas - My favorite flower for around our flag pole. I need to buy them this week and get them planted.

#4 - XRay - I’m very grateful for the X-ray machine in our office, and even more grateful that the doctor I work for X-rays us whenever we need it. He’s X-rayed DD20 many many times during her softball career.

#5 - Zoos - We watch a lot of zoo shows and I’m very grateful for zoos, and the zoo keepers, that work hard to make sure endangered animals are kept safe, and for their hard work to help them reproduce so our planet doesn’t lose any of these incredible animals.

3 things you're grateful for beginning with Q, U, V, X, or Z

1. Quilts - my grandma made each of her grandkids a quilt for a wedding gift. She made each of my girls a small quilt for their dolls. They are so cute!

2. Quick - I'm a terrible procrastinator, so I've started making a conscious effort to pay attention to how much time certain things take. I've realized that many things I procrastinate on are actually pretty quick to get done, so I've gotten better and just doing them!

3. Quarter - I ran into Aldi this weekend to get DH some of their seasonal popsicles that he loves. I was grateful to have a quarter in the car so I could use a cart! I don't shop there too often, so don't think of having one on hand when I go there.
