    Mona, what a wonderful post for what looks to be an equally wonderful (and fun looking) mother. And that goes for the rest of the family as well. Happy Mothers Day!

      My family is fun and I am sorry that I have spent so little time with them. I moved away when I was 17 because I needed space away from “all those kids” and just never made my way back home again. I miss them terribly but treasure out times together.

      I appreciate this comment. She was beautiful and so full of life. She’s 81 now and not as vibrant but she’s a strong woman. Strong.

  12. Great tribute to your mother and what a beautiful family. I hope you had a wonderful mothers day!
