5 lovely things I'm grateful of this week.

.my dearest Mama. she brought me into this world, raised me with such values, I hold the utmost appreciation for all she has done for me and for having so much faith in me.

.the farmers markets - organic, healthy, locally grown = fresh ingredients.

.music - there is a song for every emotion.

.stainless steel water bottle, I don't leave the house without it.

.scents for the senses.

What are you grateful for?

love, peace & trees

Mothers Day Love

Today is Mothers Day. A day of thanks to our Mothers, Grandmothers and Mother In-laws.
I'd like to share with you the wording of a card I bought my Mama this year for Mother's Day. (Yes, bought... I was a bit short of time this week, however I made up for it by preparing a high tea spread for them, we had a ball). I hope you and your mothers had a wonderful day. Enjoy the poem, it meant a lot to Mama and I at this time.

My Mother, My Friend

To have a friend in your mother

is to know the greatest friendship of all.

As the years have come and gone,

our relationship has changed

and we've come to share

more things with one another...

A deeper understanding

and a special kind of friendship

few people can imagine

with their Mother.

We share a certain openness

and willingness to listen...

We share so many

common interests too...

And everything in life

is more enjoyable for me

because of all we share...

because of you.

Happy Mothers Day.

love, peace & trees
