WCB-Happy Mothers Day

In order of their blessed appearance into my life, here are three of the four most important living beings that occupy my days….the reasons I celebrate being a Mom.

Harmon El Gato, age 14

Griffin, age 13

Bustopher Jones in White Spats, age 10 (approximately)

For all Moms out there, those who hold life inside them and await the day they will hold that life in their arms; for women who may not have actually birthed children and the ones who simply cared for someone who did; for the ones who have cared for a living being that’s covered in fur instead of a child who can talk back; for those who have guided my son in his years on this earth, blessed me with life abundant, treasured a friendship with me, provided wisdom, grace and laughs through the years or who have just shown me through their actions how to be the best mother I can to both my son and my furribles, I raise a toast to you for Mothers Day, Sunday May 13th. And I send an extra special blessing to those women whose mothering crosses all lines and extends into the heart of every child they come across- JoAnna, Kathy, Carla, Angela and Maria. I am blessed beyond compare to be associated with mothers like you.

For this weekends display of feline moms (and dads) head on over to see Sher, Upsie and Sundance at What Did You Eat? They are celebrating in style with cheese, good food and dreams of George Clooney. And I echo what Sher says: Be good to your Mom.
