Mother's Day Reflections

Mother's Day was yesterday. As always it gives me happiness to see many people enjoying their mothers, and it gives me gratitude and pleasure to remember my mother, now missing from us and her grandchildren and friends over eight years. I'm thinking of my hubby, family and friends who also miss their moms. There's too many of us who lost our moms way too soon.
I am so thankful to the Creator that we have the opportunity to create and nurture life, too. That is truly a gift of love. I love the little people Gd has blessed us with; no matter how challenging some things in daily life with kids can be, the love they pour on me is so sweet and I look forward to many, many happy and healthy years with them, G-d willing.
I want to thank the many women I respect and love who are there for me at every turn. Each of you is precious to me and appreciated! I hope you know how important a role you play in my life and in turn, my whole family's life. Every friendly expression, warm spoken or written word, whether in a small or large gesture, you all help fill the void of having my mom here as my friend and counsel, and the bonds of friendship are another of life's treasures. What a rich world we live in where we can enjoy so many relationships! Wishing everyone a lot of health and happy times, and peace.
