Mother's Day Weekend 2016

Mother's Day weekend meant a little more this year, since both of the kids are able to understand it. On Friday of Mother's Day weekend, I played in a best ball golf tournament at Terrace Hills in Altoona. It was fabulous weather on that Friday too, 85 degrees! I didn't golf too bad either, so that is good!

What Mother's Day Means to Me Now!

Growing up, I don't remember celebrating Mother's Day much except for what we did in school. When I was in elementary school we always made gifts for our Mom. The one I remember the most is making bath crystals and putting them in a used glass salad dressing bottle. This was a 1st grade ritual because all of my siblings made one too. Now as a mother, I'm wondering if I'd like one of those too!

As I grew older, I became nonchalant about the day. It was just another Sunday in May. Or that's how it was seen in my household because the chores were more important. However, my feelings changed when I became a mother. Everything changes when you birth a child, I mean everything. I began to see Mother's Day as a day to be treated and to be reminded of how lucky I am that God has given me two beautiful children. I finally understood why my mother loved Mother's Day so much.
