I wrote this little bit of a piece early Saturday evening and timed it to go up after midnight. You should have just posted yours above.

Hope you have a great Mom’s Day and glad to hear that all is well with the little one.

If your mother is alive be sure to drop by if close enough or call if not. It means a lot.

Saturday I received a dozen beautiful long-stemmed peach colored roses and two sleeping outfits.

I also had my two local grandchildren here and have thoroughly enjoyed our evening until our six year old grandson fell off his grandfather’s lap as they were playing a computer game. He jumped up and came to me, trying to hold back tears and told me, “I’m alright, really.” a couple of times, but then went into the bathroom so he could cry alone.

When his sister went to see how he was he kicked her out and then ran upstairs. I called his mother and she talked to him, then he came back downstairs and let me look at where he was hurt after his sister gave him a favorite stuffed toy and he confided his eye hurt.

He’s OK and it was his cheekbone, but it’s kind of sad to see a six year old boy think he can’t cry and try to hide it.

Saturday he hit a grand slam homerun, a single and a single homerun in his slow pitch baseball league. He’s growing up and he’s our baby.

Our other grandchildren are an 11 year old grandson (our eldest grandchild) an almost 11 year old granddaughter who is local and an almost 10 year old granddaughter who is the sister of the 11 year old grandson. They live in Texas and we are debating taking a trip there this summer as we usually do. It’s just that the heat and humidity in Texas is so bad.

Mothers, enjoy your children before they grow up on you, and children honor your parents. That’s the one commandment in the Bible with promise. “Honor your mother and father that your days will be long on this earth.”
