In case I don't get back to my blog before Monday...Happy Mother's Day!
My sweet Mother has been on my mind this morning. I've posted this picture probably too many times but it is my favorite. Mama holding me and Shelby standing by her side.

My Mother died on Thanksgiving Day in 2007. Her Mother, my Grandma, died on Mother's Day May 14, 1950. Mama's name was "Jewel" and she definitely was a jewel.
I love this old picture of Andee and little Madison.
Andee lives three hours away in Virginia. Madison, my sweet granddaughter, is away at a swim meet. Todd will stay home and look after the dogs and be there when Madison gets home. You know the sweetest thing? Todd asked Andee what she wanted for Mother's Day. Andee said, "I want to go see Mama". Thank you Todd and Madison for sending Andee this way for Mother's Day.

Okay, I am still in my pajamas. Got to run over the floors with the vacuum, put sheets on the bed in the sewing room, wipe a little of the dust off things, and get myself looking halfway decent...we'll be going in some thrift stores for sure! Andee is on way as we speak!
Love,
Henny
How wonderful to spend such a special day with your daughter, Hope you have a great day and create some wonderful memories to treasure.
ReplyDeleteWe had a lot of fun shopping together. Hope you are enjoying today!
DeleteHow wonderful! I can feel your excitement. I'm glad that tropical storm Ana isn't gong to hit your area this weekend. I hope your weather is great for getting out and hitting those thrift stores. Have Poppy take pictures of you two together. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteHey Peg! We did have fun. Andee left at 8:00 this morning going home to be with her daughter and husband. She made Mother's Day special for me! Happy Mother's Day to you!
DeleteThat is the best Mother's day gift ever! to get to spend time with your children and Andee getting to spend time with her mom! Hope that you all have a wonderful time! Love you both!
ReplyDeleteThat's so true! We had fun. It just didn't last long enough. She is already back home in Virginia. Love you.
DeleteEnjoy your day with your daughter. Nothing is better than thrift shopping with Mom. I am lucky to still enjoy it occasionally with my Mom.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Boy, did the hours fly. I can't believe she is back home already!

ReplyDeleteThank you Linda. I know your day is special with Jill and those sweet grandchildren there.
DeleteWhat a sweety Andee is! A wonderful Mother's Day present for you! Have fun together:)
ReplyDeleteI've got to tell you this....I occasionally visit some of the blogs you have listed to the right. I discovered Granny Marigold lives not far from me. Kind of funny that I had to go to N. Carolina to find a local blog! I've left a few comments on hers, and she came to the farmers market today and introduced herself to me. How cool is that?!
That is very cool!! That is so neat! And to think she lives near you. I was telling her through her blog that you are a blogging friend that I would love to meet in person. Hope you are having a happy Mother's Day!
DeleteHappy Mothers Day to you too. I hope the day is a wonderful one. As Karen says, through your blog we have found out we live mere miles from each other... me in town and her out in the country. She is the first blogger I've actually met. ( She's very sweet).
ReplyDeleteI just think that is so neat! Wish I could have been there to meet you both! :)
DeleteAww- that is so sweet! Lucky you! Have a wonderful Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteThank you Terri. Hope you have had a good day! :)
