it is very simple;
it is only with the heart
that one can see rightly.
what is essential is invisible to the eye

celebrating all mothering hearts,
who do not even need
their eyes to see.

Happy Mother's day lovely Rebecca!
Your kindness is appreciated by me and many.
I just have a sneaking suspension that you are an excellent mother and wife.
May you feel all the love flow around you today and everyday!!
Love,

Happy Mother's day dear Rebecca! Your photos and quote go so well together .... I am loving the ants sheltering in the shade. I'm sure that one of them must be the mom :)
Hugs, Kimmie

Dearest Rebecca,
I am late, but I am here. I love you and Happiest of Mother's Days my dearest friend. I hope that you have been regaled with flowers and chocolates and gone tipsy with mimosas by now. I LOVE your beautiful English garden. The Little Prince is my favorite book and always has been. Everything real and true about life is written in those pages. I have created a post. Mother's day is not an easy day for me, and for some reason this one was a little more difficult than usual. Thank you for your email my friend.
All My Love,
Noelle

I completely forgot to say something about Christine's Art. Oh my goodness! Her Calavera is Amazing. She is so beautiful and so intricately done with such skillful detail. I have never seen so much love put into one piece. Such generosity of spirit is truly heart opening!
Blessings to her on Mother's Day!
