Online jigsaw of a pale yellow watering can with daisies in front of wooden planks. Dasies are small white flower that can have a yellow or blue center.
I had daisies for my wedding bouquet. These look just like them. I had baby's breath in the bouquet as well, to honor my grandmother, they were her favorite.
Happy Mother's day. Got thru my solo last night and it went well in spite of everything. Can be at peace with myself today.
Happy Mother's Day all. Hope you are also at peace with yourselves and the world.
Solo? You must be a singer or musician. Maybe you're an actress. I did meet an actor. I felt really sorry for one mother. She lost two children within 3 months of each other. The first one was 15 - heart defect. Then his sister couldn't cope with his death so she comitted suicide. The oldest son called looking for my brother and got my mom. Their mom contacted mine and said "Oh please come up and see me". I begged my mom to go see her. My mom was going to be in that city anyway. She had to fly up to the Mayo Clinic in MN for medical appt. Happy Mothers Day!

Singer. Just at church. I got myself in a nervous fit because I said I'd cantor and the organist should email me the music he picked and when he didn't I got really upset because I didn't have a way to remind him. Then when I got to church a half hour early to go thru things he wasn't around and the numbers on the board showed he picked half the songs I didn't know. Finally I heard him playing someplace in the building. I asked an altar server where he might have gone and he called the guy to find out where he was. He had chosen a storage closet to play in on the second floor (normally he runs thru music at the organ by the altar) and was rehearsing some other cantor. We ran thru my solo and it was fine. When I asked about what he wanted me to do about cantoring he said the other guy knew all the music and was set to do it. He added I could sing along if I wanted but I chose to sit with my husband until the solo. This could have been so nice an experience. Instead I was a wreck.
Well I sang the Schubert Ave Maria so well I got spontaneous applause so all his maneuvering didn't spoil things for me in the long run (TBTG! )

Omg! I'm sure you were amazing. That's one thing I wish I had the talent for was singing. Then I've watched americas got talent and some of these people think they can sing. There told sing - I'm not a talent scout and no that they off tune.

I don't blame you for being upset. I was upset with hubby the week before my surgery. Even the day I had surgery. Before and after the surgery as well. Ugh!

Taking your advice? Many times there young and they think that they have the answers. You as a parent as been through it. I did it myself with my parents. My parents kept giving me advice and kept saying nope don't need your advice. Then I heard about a woman 23 with 4 kids. Just don't think she can afford them!

I think except for the fortunate few who had their pick of sweethearts and fell in love with someone great most of us went thru times like that. Thankfully one day I realized what my future would be if I kept going in that direction and I made a quick U-turn.

Ugh! I think I'll have to have another surgery. I have a bump on my head. I already know what it is - I had one removed several years ago.

Sorry to hear that, Carol. Hope it goes smoothly and quickly. Prayer for that.
We had a wonderful service for Mother's Day and it was really good. It was based on faith and that our children are gifts from God. Some of us moms had lost children and our Pastor made sure we were included as still being a mom. One lady lost 3 of her adult children within months of each other. Another one lost her son a few years ago, another one 2 years ago and my own 7 years ago. We love our children unconditionally that are still with us. Even through our loss, we are still so blessed as our children are from God's and he takes them when He wants them back. I pray for all the mom's out there for a wonderful Mother's Day
I lost my only son 14 yrs ago when he was 20. God bless you Mamag for remembering those of who have lost children!

Love you olamae61. I pray you had a wonderful day yesterday. I got a phone call my oldest son and my daughter. I also had a nice visit with my two younger sisters. I miss my Jake though., the best day he gave me was when he said he could not afford to buy me anything so he cleaned the house for me. He said it probably as good a job as I could do. I did not care. It was something he wanted to do and it was from the heart. I still have the note he wrote about 8 years ago. I cherish the memories but they make me sad. Sorry I wrote so much but I wanted to share a special moment with someone who has walked in my shoes.God bless and have a blessed day.

God bless Mamag! Don't worry, sometimes I go on and on about something I care about too. (Especially if you read any of my comments) LOL! The moment I cherish about my son was that I was waiting at a bus stop and he was walking towards me with his girlfriend. He saw me and quickly took his hand out of his girlfriend's had and turned bright red! I was chuckling to myself and thinking how tender the moment was. I cherish the memories I have of him. They make me sad that he isn't here and I miss him. I consider myself blessed to have been his mother, because he was such a good person. You have a blessed day too!
