What is a mother?
It takes a mother's love to make a house a home--
A place to be remembered no matter where we roam.
It takes a mother's patience to bring a child up right
And her courage and her cheerfulness to make a dark day bright.
It takes a mother's thoughtfulness to mend the heart's deep hurts
And her skill and her endurance
to mend little socks and shirts.
It takes a mother's kindness to forgive us when we err,
To sympathize in trouble,
and to bow her head in prayer.
It takes a mother's wisdom to recognize our needs,
And to give us reassurance
by her loving words and deeds.

{Please note, the reason that my mom is wearing the same dress as on Easter was because I requested her to. I just love that dress but I didn't think about how on the blogs would be back to back. Hah!}

What a nice group pic! What's the difference between this pic and the next one? Hint: Tommy's quite the jokester.
Perfect day for The Lodge! 
Amy and Beth, mother and daughter.
