That is why I think a photograph can be kind.--Albert Einstein

A mother's love's a blessing, no matter where you roamKeep her while she's living, you'll miss her when she's goneLove her as in childhood, though feeble, old and greyFor you'll never miss a mother's love, till she's buried beneath the clay.Thomas P. Keenan

Happy Mother's Day
