For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.

Well, this will be the first year since becoming a mommy 15 1/2 years ago that i am separated from my daughters and hubby on Mothers Day!
My husband is off to Boston for a RedSox game with my teen, her cousin, her uncle and grampa T. I am off to my hometown in Central NYS with my youngest to hook up with an old friend I reconnected with via Facebook...we've been friends since 1967 when we were both 7 years old! I will spend the nite at my parents' home, attend their church in the early a.m., lunch and then off to my sister's and her hubby's. We'll all finally be home here in Albany area come Sunday nite!
Whatever you have planned....enjoy!
We are having my mom and my mother-in-law over for cook-out.

We spent a lovely relaxing weekend camping... and presently I'm blog-hopping while my daughters are busily preparing supper and a surprise (something that involves frosting because I had to go buy powdered sugar and look up the recipe for them!)... Hope you're having a wonderful Mother's Day also!
