On this day, Oh beautiful Mother


Absolutely nothing I could say would adequately depict the love I feel for my Mother and the gratitude I have for giving me life & constantly being there for me.


Nothing tangible will ever pay her back. Oh, sure, we went on a mini shopping spree and she got a bunch of chic outfits. She's stylin' and just the coolest Mom you could ever have! Our Mother's Day weekend was superb! One of the best we've had in years!


I'm so very proud of her comeback. She has more life in her today than 4 years ago. THIS is a gift bestowed on all of us from God and I refuse to take it for granted.



I was able to give her one gift so near and dear to my heart: the gift of song. I used my gift of song during weekend Mass. I have a great gift from God and love sharing it with others.


I am blessed. Maybe because it was Mother's Day weekend and my Church is named after Mary, our Mother...maybe it was just the music selection this weekend.....maybe I put a little more into it for Mary our Mother and all Mothers here on earth and those I know who have passed?


I don't really know but I can not tell you how many beautiful women/mothers came up to me after every Mass and thanked me for making their celebration more beautiful and complete.


It was my pleasure and honor singing 'On this day, O beautiful Mother' for every Mother this weekend, especially the Virgin Mary.



I am humbled to make Mom happy and proud by using my gift of song to the best of my ability.



I know Mom had a tremendous weekend....she says everything about it was wonderful: the singing, the company, the gifts, dinner and brunch, all the laughter, and the outpouring of love galore...but I know better. I know her favorite part was receiving her Slider Slippers! Enjoy Mom and Happy Mother's Day. Hopefully MANY MANY more to come!!! xoxo
