She grows things on her off-days…
and grows them on her on-days too…
She creates drawings for us to dream about, and then helps us plant them too…
She collects seashells by the seashore…
…and hides the perfect cards for me to find…
(I found this one this morning)
She’s a flower-baker, a shell-shaker, a day-maker- she’s my Mom!

Aren’t Mommies just fabulous? I hope to be as good of a mom to my kids, as my mommy was to me!

Beautiful post… your mom must be incredible!
Love the garden photo and the blue door!
How awesome! Your mom rocks 🙂
That’s so sweet! You’re a good daughter to give your mom so much gratitude!
Awww…your mom made me get all choked-up. What a great role model.
You’re a lucky girl!
How nice is that! Mother daughter bonds and truly special gifts.
That’s so sweet. It makes me miss my Mom. Isn’t canny how they just KNOW?
Oh my eyes are so misty! I am so glad that you treasure her. This is my first Christmas without my mom and I do so miss her enthusiastic fever for the holidays.
I love this! I can’t wait for my Mom to come and visit for Christmas!
mom’s just seem to know what you need 🙂
What a beautiful description of what seems to be a beautiful lady!
What a wonderful thing to have a mom who is so full of unconditional love!! And she will make a great Grandma , too!!
Layla.
She is just like you.
You are just like her.
One day your grown baby will
have those same feelings for you
as you do
for your mom. It lasts for always.
Thanks for always giving everyone
warm, fuzzy stories. geri.
p.s. my 34 year old daughter told her doctor yesterdayas I was watching my
2 cutie baby grandchikdren
” I don’t know which is better, having my mom with me all day
or getting medicine to fix me.” I am very lucky too.
You are blessed indeed!
surpise notes are the best…thanks for sharing.
Layla,
I’m a firm believer that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Of course Jude is a clever and creative woman who has a kind and loving spirit and appreciates nature. All I have to do to know that is know her daughter. 🙂
BTW, I own one of her shell boxes and it’s nothing less than spectacular!
Your Friend,
Deborah
How sweet is that? Lucky you!
I’m so glad you appreciate her so! Have fun with your best friend this holiday season!
Donna
How precious! I just got a Christmas card from mine….I sure do miss her! ♥
so sweet. . . and even sweeter, you get to be that to someone very soon!
Your mom – so aptly (beautifully) described by you! A “shell shaker, day-maker”. I like it.
sounds like a pretty sweet and special gal ! that card is just perfect. 🙂

Lovely post. 🙂
I plan to send that sweet saying on to someone I know needs to be reminded. Thanks.
“You Are My Sunshine” is the song that reminds me so much of my mom. Several years ago, I found a little musical little thingy that plays that song for her!!!
she sounds so sweet:)
lovely post. thank you!
Nothing in this world like a mom! Yours sounds like a keeper 🙂
Your post made me wish my mom still felt like doing and going! But I am so grateful that she is still with me and I had the opportunity to move her close to me this fall!
love it!
So sweet.. Thats a framable quote..
Mommies are so special!!! How sweet of her.
You expect surprises and little gifts on your birthday, you expect them on Christmas…… but I think the most special ones are the ones you get on a regular day when you don’t expect them at all. It’s always so special when the ones you love show you how much you mean to them in such little ways 🙂
Moms are fantastic. Mine is my rock and I am who I am because of her and I am pretty awesome!!
This is soooo sweet and I LOVE my sweet mom, too. Thanks for sharing this! -shaunna 🙂
BEAUTIFULLLLL, THANKS THAT INSPIRED ME
♥BEAUTIFUL♥…..Sniff, Sniff 😉
Your mom is where you get that “shiny” personality! Treasure her always!
This is so sweet. Thank the Lord for sweet mamas.
Layla,
Your mom sounds so sweet and thoughtful and such a wonderful mom! You are lucky to have her. My mom died 7 years ago, and I so miss her. Life is strange without your mom.
AWWW….what a sweet mom you have, your so blessed.
