Happy Mother's day!

While I was at the hospital May 2nd, from where I was sitting in the ER, I spotted these 2 mothers from my line of sight. 

The closer one, was holding a 5 year old who seemed to have a vomiting issue. As she held him she rocked him softly.

The one in the background, is holding a 2 year old with a sprained or broken arm/hand. She held him in her arms 6-7 hours trying to keep him calm. 

So I wish all mom's out there a happy mother's day. This photo symbolic of the love mom's have for their offspring. 

Edit: on this mother's day 2021, neither one of my daughters acknowledged it was mother's day or messaged me. I spent the night crying.  It hurt very much. 

I was spoiled for mothers day.

This year on Mothers day I was spoiled.

My daughter Izzy took me out for mothers day brunch, gave me a card that had me in tears, and a beautiful plant. My daughter Samantha sent me a touching card via mail, and my step daughter Zoey gave me a candle she made.

I cried multiple times. I was very touched.

Mother's day Week-end

So Saturday of mother's day week-end I spent most of the day shopping on St Hubert street going to the various fabric and notions stores. Then headed back home at dinner time where my eldest daughter was waiting for me. We caught a quick bite at an Amir's and took the metro to Cafe L'Artere to see Tranna Wintour The show was awesome.  Here's a few photos I captured myself.

I was very touched that my daughter in England messaged me to wish me a happy mothers' day. The daughter who was with me took me to an awesome show and gave me a very touching card. I cry each time I read it.  I was also very touched by the bouquet of flower I was given by my friend younger then my daughters. She wanted to thank me for being supportive of her in the two years she's known me. I was just so stunned, and I always react strangely when I'm stunned.

Happy mother's day

I was reading that the woman who started "Mother's day", didn't like how it got commercial pretty quickly and spent the last years of her life, trying to kill the concept of "Mother's day". 

Flowers were associated with Mother's day from the very beginning and florists of course loved the concept. Yet another reason people flock to their stores to purchase flowers.

I already got a mother's day card and present about 2 weeks ago, so I'm not expecting to hear from anyone today.
