To all of the Mothers in my life…

"The

noblest calling

            in the world is motherhood.  True motherhood is the most beautiful of all arts, the greatest of all professions.  She who can paint a masterpiece, or who can write a book that will influence millions, deserves the admiration and plaudits of mankind; but she who rears successfully a family of healthy, beautiful sons and daughters, whose immortal souls will exert an influence throughout the ages long after paintings shall have faded, and books and statues shall have decayed or have been destroyed, deserves the highest honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God."

                                                          David O. McKay

 

May your dishes all be washed my men today 
and your flowers never wilt. 
May the sweet cards made by children
and the sweeter songs they sing never fade. 
May you feel the love of the Lord this day
and never  doubt His gratitude for all you do for His children –big and small.

Wishing you all a very Happy Mother’s Day! –a day late… sorry I couldn’t be bothered to get on the computer yesterday.
