I seem almost surprised when the kids get me something and truthfully wouldn't mind if they didn't get me a thing. <br><br>It's important to honor mothers, but I have mixed feelings. Because they set aside a certain "day" to do it, I feel like it magnifies all of my shortcomings in being a good daughter to my mom on the other 364 days a year. Maybe that's because now as my mom is 84 years old I see her life coming to an end and I look back at how much I didn't do, how sometimes doing things for her was a chore and not done with much joy or love. She never complained or made me feel guilty like I hear a lot of people say their moms do.<br><br>My thoughts are definitely with those you mentioned in your wonderful entry, Mary. <br><br>And BIG congratulations on being named Guest Editor! <br><br>Hugs,<br>Gwynn<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991415371219936859.post-69781389802823797032006-05-13T10:33:00.000-07:002006-05-13T10:33:00.000-07:00I'm sure you touched a lot of people with your...I'm sure you touched a lot of people with your entry today.
