Happy Mothers’ Day!

“A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best,
but his mother the longest.” ~Irish Proverb

We celebrated with a family dinner at Granny’s house last night.  Then, my uncle got us watching a marathon of the History Channel’s Pawn Stars.  We were all piled in the living room guessing what things would be worth, whether they would buy it, et cetera….we couldn’t stop watching it.   
Plenty of food and lots of laughs…..a perfect way to celebrate Mothers’ Day (and my Dad’s birthday).

Wishing all of you a great celebration today!

“When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts.  A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.”  ~Sophia Loren

“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.”
~Washington Irving

“I regard no man as poor who has a godly mother.” ~Abraham Lincoln
