Cards I made while at a Crafting Retreat in April. The bottom right hand one is the card I sent out for Mother’s Day this year.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of my wonderful Mom friends.  I realize that there is pain associated with Mother’s Day because many struggle with fertility issues, gave up a baby for adoption, or even had an abortion. My heart goes out to all of you.  Even though I have two boys, I lost 4 other children, and that hole is always there in my heart.  But there is so much happiness as well.  I know so many fantastic Moms out there.  I am sending you all hugs and prayers.

Happy Mother’s Day to my Mom and my Mother-in-law.  Thank you both for all you do and have done.

Me?  I am going to church and hanging out with my family.  Gotta love that.
