very well said...If my mom were alive today....I am sure she would drug us to the club...but not Sully and I would prepare her favorie dish and have cocktails with her on the patio...I would wait on her hand and foot....when she got ill I was 14 and took cared of her, and my baby sister...daddy couldn't handle "his Hawkeye being weak and sick" so left after 25 yrs. I would do it over again...she was a class act..put up with my horrible tom boy ways but made sure I knew how to be a lady when I should be. she hunted with daddy, she kept us straight had patiants of a saint and a temper og the devil...all it took a look and I know I was pushing it. She fought for daddy to buy me a horse...so I could chase my dream...and he did. she was the greatest to me Happy Mothers Day I miss my best friend still and she has been gone 35 yrs I lost her at 21. and I really do not like when Moms day falls on her birthday may 12. love Deb Deb and her Boys Victory's Bullseye,TT.,CGC.,CD,ASCACD.

I am working with a blended family of 5 and their 4 Goldens, five days a week. After a couple hours with them, I go home exhausted. This experience has given me a great appreciation of Mom's who work, raise their kids, and keep the homefront sane. Yes, I raised one daughter as a single parent. But, that doesn't even begin to compare with the multi-tasking that Moms do to keep life sane, especially in the current world. Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there. I wish you all the credit you deserve. Dads and kids, make sure you show wife/mom how much she means to you :-) Laura ===========================================================================POST is Copyrighted 2010.
