...A Mother's Day Stroll...

Mother's Day started with early morning chats with Cindy and Mike...that was special.  After church we drove over to the rhododendron gardens to take a stroll.  I never realized that rhododendrons came in so many different colors.  Walking among flowers always evoke such a feeling of peacfulness.  All troubles seem to melt away.  On our way home we stopped for a blizzard from Dairy Queen...a perfect Mother's Day!

My Mother's Garden

A mother is a gardener,

Planting the seeds

Of faith, truth and love

That develop into the fairest flowers

Of character, virtue and happiness

In the lives of her children.
