Happy Mother's Day to Me!



The ache for home lives in all of us,
the safe place where we can go as we are
and not be questioned.
~ Maya Angelou

I hope that our home will always be this safe place for our children.
Today, it will be my safe place!
Not easy for me to celebrate being mothered,
But getting to be a mother brings joy and friendship
and acceptance and laughter to my life.
Today we'll share a meal, crack lots of jokes
and maybe play a game or two.
Happy Mother's Day to ME!!
