June Bagley-Happy Mothers Day to my mom

It's been a busy day.. I've been out in the garden, loving the sun and having my hands in the dirt. 

 But as I finally have a few minutes to myself, I think of my mom. 

 It's not just on Mother's Day that I think of her.

  I think of her almost every day.  I miss her every day. 

 I was blessed to have a wonderful mother. 

She taught me by her example

She dedicated herself to being a wife, mother and homemaker. 

Her home was always lovely. 

 Holidays were especially fun around our home as she put her special touches everywhere. 

 Even casual meals were special, nothing ever just thrown out on the table. 

 Always beautiful dishes set on a placemat with a cloth napkin and silverware. 

 There was always a warm feeling in our home. 

 I feel this came from the love that was felt there. 

Happiness met you as you came through the door.  

 

 I am so grateful for the relationship I had with my mom. 

 She wasn't just my mom, she was my best friend. 

We would talk for hours on the phone and visit together when ever we got the chance. 

 I am grateful for all the many lessons she taught me,

 for the way she lived, for her example,

her testimony,

her dedication to my dad and to us

 (her children).  

 

"Your arms were always open when I needed a hug. 

Your heart understood when I needed a friend. 

 Your gentle eyes were stern when I needed a lesson. 

 Your strength and love has guided me and gave me wings to fly."
