I love Mother’s Day because each of our children do something extra to express their appreciation for my mothering.

However, the weekend also makes me feel inadequate as I listen to all the nice things people say about their mothers.

I expect none of us were or are perfect mothers, but most of us have done our best during each life situation as we – imperfect mothers raised imperfect children. 🙂

These are some of the things that arrived at our house during Mother’s Day weekend. I forgot to take a picture of the chocolates, body cream, and bath crystals that came with the bouquet of flowers. The one card came with the promise of a restaurant lunch.

I love being the mother, grandma, and great-grandma of our fabulous family.
