The most wonderful time of the year has what I consider maybe the BEST Holiday of the year: Mother’s Day!

Wishing you all the very best, especially the new Mom’s out there! Seeing you all with your new babes in arms is a joy and a gift I didn’t expect to find online :)

My family is celebrating my Mom’s 5th year of being cancer-free this weekend. It was at this time of the year in 2003 that she went through treatment for Ovarian Cancer and with the help of the fabulous Dr. Wood in Cadillac, MI, beat it! We couldn’t be more thrilled!!!

Happy Mother’s Day to all (Grammas, Aunts too)! And I’ll be in spirit with the Knitter’s for Knocker’s Group as they make their trek for Breast Cancer Research on Saturday…

…I took the picture of the antique roses above in the gardens at Giverny. They are very much like the one’s that lined our back fence when I was growing up and made me smile and think of my Mom when I saw them. One of my earliest memories is of my Mom outside gardening and the happiness that grew…

  4. Congratulations to your mom! Being 5 years cancer free deserves a big celebration.

    The roses are beautiful.

  9. Have a wonderful Mother’s Day with your mom.
    Five years! Go, Mom, Go!!
    I don’t think I’d be out of line to ask you to give her a hug for all of us fans of your work, and tell her we all say “Happy Mother’s Day!”
