Happy Mother's Day

       Good Morning Moms and everybody else,
     It is a beautiful Adirondack day complete with blue sky and temps. that promise to top out in the high 60's or low 70's.  Perfect weather for being home and catching up before back to school tomorrow.  
     Today I am going to make a point of living in the now instead of dwelling on all the challenges that will rise inevitably in the future.  Thanks to my friend Lisa, whose blog, Journey Towards a Mindful Life, is a reminder to do so, I will make myself mindful of the task.  
       Today, I am posting yet another series of photographs from my archives and a video.  Hope you will enjoy these images of motherhood as you celebrate the day with family and friends.  Enjoy!

Helen, (right), was Hannah's mother.

Cindy, (middle), and Michele, (right) are both wonderful mothers. 

 All of the younger women in this picture of Rod's family are fabulous mothers who had an amazing role model, their mother, Rachel, (far left, 1928 -2011). 

 Xena, (last Westie on the right), is the mother of all the other Westies in this picture.

 Grammie was not only a wonderful mother, she was a super grandmother and great-grandmother.

 My mother with baby Nina and Casey Bird.

 Helen took to motherhood perfectly.  Here with Rachel, (top) and Hannah, (bottom).

 Mrs. Chicken was very elderly when she came to live with us.  She was the mother of many.
