Hope everyone had a most wonderful Mother's Day, whether you're a mother or not, whether you're close to your mother or not, whether your mother is here with you or passed on, I truly hope that your day was happy and fulfilling. I believe all women who nurture children and play positive roles in their lives are in a way "mothers" of those children.
I feel lucky to be have been born to my mother, who I truly think is one of the greatest mothers ever. She sacrificed so much for us, and my only hope, wish and prayer is that I am born to her in every life to come!
Here she is, a brand new mother (I'm her first child), in a groovy graphic-print dress that looked to be a staple in the wardrobes of women all around the world ... at least, if this picture's any indication, lol! Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful Ammi!
I also found some beautiful vintage gifts for her! One was this collectible Mother's Day porcelain plate from 1972, the year I was born!
She went crazy over it! The design is painted in 24 karat gold, and the ladies at the shop where I found it also loved the fact that it was the year my mother became a mother -- it's like the plate was meant for us!
I also found this lovely little vintage magnet, which we gave as a gift from our son, her first grandchild.

My mother love decorative magnets, and this one has hooks for things like keys, which she's always misplacing lol! She loved this little gift too.
Our son caught that stomach "bug" that's been going around this weekend, and although he was much better today, everyone's Mother's Day plans had to be postponed (our grandmother's passing was also a factor in that). So we'll go out to celebrate probably at the end of the week.
Despite all that, ours was a lovely happy memorable day, and I'm so very grateful for that!
