For My Mom

My Mom always used to say, when we'd done something particularly sweet or nice or whatever, "Oh, bless your heart!" Well, my Mom blessed my heart. Continually. Probably just about every day. And I've never done a very good job at thanking her. AND not only did she do this for each of her five children, she does it for her fifteen grandchildren AND her five great-grandchildren. My daughter is always kidding about Grandma saying to her, "Oh Cherlynnie, bless your heart!" So this is for you, Mom. Because you blessed my heart . . . and my soul . . . and you continue to do it every day. Thank you.
