"wrapping" things up

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

~Washington Irving

A mother is one to whom you hurry when you are troubled.

~Emily Dickinson

Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs in my field, since the payment is pure love.

We "wrapped up" our Mother's Day
activities today with a writing activity and by wrapping our presents! They are so pretty, aren't they? The kids are so excited to give their moms their cards and presents. They have been asking me all week when they get to take them home. . . now to get ready for my mom!
