Mother's Day..


This past Sunday was Mother's Day and I spent it at my sister's. There were three mothers there,my sister, her two daughters and myself.My sister's youngest daughter celebrated her first year as a new mom to baby Nick.
My sister and I reminisced about our mother, sharing a sad moment and some happy tales too.As each mother unwrapped gifts I watched and thought to myself,my Mother's Day gift would come when I received a phone call from my only son. No bought gift can compare to hearing your child's voice over the phone when he's many miles away in another country and you have not seen him in five months.The call came that afternoon and another Mother's Day was complete for me.
