We are celebrating a day early so my grandson can spend the actual day with his mother. Happy mom's day, everybody! And even if you're not a mom, you're somebody's daughter! xoTanya Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08580821680629254085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-59799831130446691492014-05-04T19:28:11.859-05:002014-05-04T19:28:11.859-05:00How touching.

I didn't realize how many recognitions and proclamations there were before an actual date was set for Mother's day.<br />For my mother, I always tried to send a card--that was it. In her later years, I called, but that was never very satisfying. <br />Our daughter never forgets a birthday, Mother's Day, or Father's Day. Always cards, since our relationship is long distance, and I've saved all of them.<br />Our son lives far away, and he has our only grandchildren. His wife, darling that she is, makes sure I get a card signed by everyone. I can just see the three boys, now six feet tall or slightly less, being called over to the desk...here, sign this. It's for your Texas Grandmother. And they dutifully follow orders. Love those big kids.<br />Thanks for the historical explanation of Mother's Day.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272417114895975742noreply@blogger.com
