Thought for the day …..

Good Morning and Welcome to Thursday the 23rd day of February, 2017.

Yesterday I woke up with a raging headache that knocked the socks right off of me.

I stayed home from work and slept virtually all day.

Finally headache is gone and I feel so much better.

***************************************************

Today belongs to two special women in my life.

The first being my one and only sister “C.”

My sister is an awesome Mother and Grandmother and Sister and Aunt.

We have been through life together.

Been single Moms together.

We have laughed and cried together.

Danced together.

Been mad at each other.

Travelled together.

Partied together.

But will, and have always been there for each other.

She is funny, smart, nice and cool, and I am grateful that she is my sister.

No matter how far we are apart; we are always together.

Happy Birthday my Darling …..

The other special woman that shares a birthday with my beloved sister is my dear friend, “D.”

We met about thirty-five years ago.

We were both single Moms at the time, and had so much in common.

She is the most fashionable person I know.

Not only does she dress crazy well but she can decorate like no one else I know.

Not only does she always look amazing but she is smart and funny as well.

Happy Birthday my Friend.

 

Happy Birthday Ladies and I hope that life continues to treat you with great regard.

Thank you for being a part of my life and of my heart.

These are for you both.

Wow, what a day this is ….

Special Hello to: my sister and my friend “D” …… Happy Birthday Ladies.

Always, Carol and Alvin

 

Thought for the day…..

Good Morning and Welcome to Sunday, the 12th day of May 2013 and “MOTHER’S DAY”.

It is overcast but very warm this morning in the City of Edmonton, and it is calm.

I am so grateful to have spring, and to be alive and able to enjoy this great moment, this time, this day.

I want to wish every WOMAN and GIRL on the planet a “Happy Mother’s Day.”

Whether you are a Mother by giving birth to a child, having a child through adoption or by marriage.

Whether you are a Mommy to your dolly or your dog or cat or bird.

You are a nurturer, loving and kind.

You were meant to be on this earth and to spread love through your “children.”

It could also be said that some of the opposite sex could also fit into the nurturer group….

I think Mother’s Day applies to anyone whether two-legged or four-legged or other… that gives love to another.

Someone who gives kindness and joy and doesn’t ask for anything in return.

So as I prepare to SKYPE with my wonderful, beautiful, kind, loving and fantastic sister … I wish you all the absolute most fantastic, amazing, awesome day that you have ever experienced.

I hope that you remember you are special …. you bring joy to others.

So on this Mother’s Day if you happen to be alone …. just revel in the glory that you are amazing and the Earth is a better, better place for you being in it.

Have the best day.

I love you …..

and THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO.

 

Special Hello: to YOU …. thank you Mom……I miss you.  thank you Grandma, I miss you ….. to all those great ones that have gone before us.

 

Always, Carol and her Alvin …. who does cherish his Momma …..  🙂
