Happy Mother's Day (Truly Grateful Series)


my sons then and now




my mom in her younger days


my mom and my sons 

This was my first Mother's Day without my Mom.  It didn't seem right to not be able to see her today.  I am very lucky to have had her in my life, though, and I have very happy memories from my childhood and down through the years.  She gave me so much and did so much for me over my lifetime that I can never repay.  All I can do is pay the love she gave me forward to my sons as best I can.  My sons are treasured gifts to me.  I have been richly blessed.  I hope you all had a happy Mother's Day.


Lord, for Mother's Day and the relationship it honors between mothers and their children, for my Mom, and for my sons, please let me be truly grateful.

I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in? Licensing rights? quot;Is life so dear or peace so AlBDamned Aug 29, 11:14 AM zero evidence, other than my gut feeling. Then that's nothing but semi-diluted Apple fanboi-ism which is, in my op

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's
