Spunky, Fiesty and Smart trump Submissive, Docile and Ignorant any day
Size does not matter if one is mighty in one's soul
Sometimes a road block really does simply mean
that's not the road you're supposed to take
When God closes a door, he always opens a window
Never pogo stick on gravel
Play...a lot
Sewing doesn't make one domestic--it makes one useful
...it also helps keep family members from getting lost.
Making meatballs for your daughter--even though you really do not
enjoy the task--makes your daughter feel pretty darn special when she walks
in the door for lunch and sees meatballs.
Being your child's biggest supporter and fiercest defender
is a pretty Big Thing in parenting
Never waste an opportunity to celebrate
Birthdays are Very Important Days
Allow your child to make mistakes--even if they're super dooper big ones
Love unconditionally
Reveal your own mistakes and weaknesses
Show fear
Show courage in the face of that fear
Go about the impossible with fierce tenacity
Enjoy the moment when the impossible has been made possible
Goals and dreams are attainable--without sacrificing family
Take care of yourself--inside and out
Follow your heart
Follow your own rhythm
"Bloom where you're planted"
Be impulsive
Have Faith
Be faithful.
Thanks, Mama...I am, indeed, a blessed daughter.
Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Belated Mother's Day! Those are definitely some wise words to live by. Especially the "never pogo stick on gravel". I wish my mother taught me that. :)
I was all into what you were so poetically expressing; feeling sentimental...until I saw those plaid outfits on the Easter picture. And then I lost it with a big LOL!
Love those shags (hairstyles) too. :) Partridge Family comes to mind.
