Mama Jane:

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. ~Washington Irving


Thanks for all that you do for us children (blood related or not) and grandchildren. We could never repay you for all the many hours you have-- and will continue to --love, help, fret over, laugh with, cry, feed, support, and nurture us all. We aspire to your type of mothering.
Happy mother's day!

I'd like to add that:
Mom's calendar goes straight from March 31 to April 2, no one fools mom.
Mom's tears cure cancer, too bad she's never cried.
Mom once won a game of connect four in three moves.
Once a cobra bit mom's leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.
Mom doesn't read books, she stares them down until she gets the information she wants.
It only takes mom twenty minutes to watch 60 Minutes.
Mom can bend light by sheer will power.

Happy Mother's Day mom!!!
