For My Mom

 
 
Wishing every one a happy Mother's day weekend. Especially to My Mom.

 Thanks Mom for taking care of us four hooligans and putting up with all of our antics. The rotten tomato fights, cow pie battles, mud fights at the pond, and all of the filthy laundry you had to endure after days spent with our 4-H project animals in the barn. Spending countless hours watching us play sports and show at the fair. For cooking endless meals for our voracious appetites and feeding all of our friends who were always hanging around. For clearing the snow off the pond every time it snowed so we could skate and play ice hockey with our friends. I am sure it wasn't easy to be a farm wife after growing up in the city but you did a great job, even with TBCS's chicken adventure, hatchet in hand.

 
My girls always are full of wonder at how pretty your garden is and they say there is a garden fairy who lives in your garden, but I know that she is you. Always out there nurturing your garden and encouraging it to grow.

Happy Mothers Day Mom!

Yeah Moms, You Rock!

I had almost forgotten about the rotten tomato fights. I do think if child protective services would have seen how we tested the ice every winter, they would have taken us away.
