Mother's Day Is Coming
Spending about an hour on the telephone looking up phone numbers for Flower Shoppes where I can place orders for our Moms took more time than I ever imagined today. Managed to locate the info and phone in a couple of orders. Relieved this has taken place and Moms will receive flowers because they are special to us.
My Mother.in.law has a Mother's Day Birthday as well so it was like killing two birds with one stone. Both Mommas are getting pink roses with baby's breath in a glass vase. They sound nice enough and I am glad that I got this done today. I asked that the flowers be delivered on Thursday. I want the Moms to enjoy the fresh flowers a few days before the calendar says it's Mother's Day.
I bought cards a few days ago. Filled the cards out today and they will go out on Thursday. Hopefully those will arrive on Saturday. The flowers will reach them Thursday then a few days later the cards will show up. Probably will telephone Moms on Saturday as waiting until Sunday sometimes the phone lines are overloaded and cannot get through to reach out to them.
Some LADIES have never had children. In this case we show appreciation toward women who have mothered children, mentored or been adopted. We can show appreciation to our own Moms or other Moms. Motherhood.
I am very thankful that I am a mother.
So thankful.
Sometimes I wish I had given birth to 10 children.
SO to all you Mommas who have children that grew up and left home, who have passed away, disappeared, aren't perfect, difficult to handle, easy as pie to love, around your feet and in your hair or never had children at all...may Mother's Day be a pleasant day to think on HAPPY TIMES.
Thankful for children. Period. They don't even have to be mine.
This rose is for you!
God Bless,

DECORATING
I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."
John 3:7
“Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.”
King James Version (KJV)
PSALM 118:17
I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.
By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding
it is established;
through
knowledge
its rooms are filled with rare
and beautiful treasures.
SALVATION
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Acts 4:12 King James Version (KJV)
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
"HOME is a wonderful place to LIVE. No matter the size of the rooms, ones HOME is a place to call ones own. I so LOVE my HOME." ~Deanna~
PSALM 90:12

WISHES
NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
