Happy Mothers Day

5/7/2016

"He didn't realize that love as powerful as your Mother's for you, 
leaves its own mark." 
J. K. Rowling - Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone 

These are busy weeks indeed in our neck of the woods, Flower Market, Wilmington Garden Day, Winterthur Point to Point, Kentucky Derby Parties, Coverdale Farms Native Plant Sales to name a few.

But in the midst of all the hoopla, don't forget the biggie, Mothers Day is on Sunday.

Sorry, but I had to share this little song.
​


​"Most mothers are instinctive philosophers." 
Harriet Beecher Stowe


​Mine is a master. I know how very lucky I am to 
have my best friend as my mother. Those of you lucky enough to know my mom will agree.   Virginia is a well of deep understanding and compassion and has  a gift for stating some mighty profound truths in the simplest of terms. ​

Some classic Virg-isms 

"What your best friends won't tell you, I will, because I'm your mother." 

Followed by some hard truths and good advice.

"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should."

"Our strengths are our weakness, when carried to excess."

"It's a short road that has no bends."
​
"I never saw a shroud with pockets in it."
​
"Are there no standards?"
​

They say we all eventually turn into our mothers,  I haven't yet, but I'm trying.
Happy Mothers Day!
