Today was a Good Day!

It's been raining in my fair city for most of the day, beginning Saturday!! Usually for some unknown reason that old song which says "Rainy Days & Mondays always get me down" starts to sing in my mind after one full day of rain.  But today is Mother's Day all over the USA!! So there's no way a little rain would dampen my spirits!  Not even the fact that I was drenched going into church this morning. . not once but twice!! Yep, you guessed it!! Just didn't want to carry that umbrella around with me.  Oh well! But still it was a good day.

I'm a card collector. . I love beautiful greeting cards because I'm the kind of person that feels you can tell a lot from someone just by what the card says.  Well. . I was overwhelmed this year at all the beautiful Mother's Day cards I received.  I've been floating all day!! There was even a card that said Nana!! Talking about "tugging" at your heart strings. . those words and the little signatures inside were like music to my ears. Ahhhhhh!!

To top it off, my daughter and I spent a perfect evening of fun together. .dinner. . movie. . shopping. ...you know "girl stuff" and I simply loved it!!  Even got roses from my husband (this from a man who thinks buying any type of plant or flower is an absolute waste of money because they die).  Guess I'm finally rubbing off on him.  LOL!! I really felt like the woman in Proverbs 31:10 today.  Such an honor to be loved by your family, but even more, to be told you're loved.  My cup runneth over. . .  Yes, today was a good day! One I will keep close in my heart and ponder on the next time there's a little "tension" in my home. 

To every mother across our globe. . You are beautiful. . life just wouldn't be the same without you.  Here's hoping you had a very Happy Mother's Day. . I know I did.. . . . . one I won't soon forget!!

Another Ticker Moment!
