Moms


Earlier this week I spent a few days at my folks' house while Dave was on travel. Dad was off taking training in preparation for working for the Census Bureau, so mom ad I had a relaxing day together. Here she is, sitting under he leafing-out wisteria in her back yard. We wandered through the Botanical Gardens, and the Aquarium in Albuquerque, and took in a small quilt show in Rio Rancho, and had a lovely day together.

Time with our mothers (and fathers for that matter) is a precious thing. I know she will not always be here to spend time with. So I am enjoying the blessing of easy fellowship and company with her. And, Gentle Reader, I hope you will follow my lead, and call your mom!

Great suggestion, Chris. I'd love to call her. You don't happen to know her number, do you? :-)

All of which to encourage your suggestion, that those privileged to have mothers to call not take that privilege for granted.
