I've Known This Wonderful Woman Longer Than Anyone And I Love Her

A YOUNG Timothy Scott

 A few years back I decided I should celebrate my day of arrival with my Mom.  It made very good sense to me. Mom should get something for my birthday.  Yes, she should receive SOMETHING for all her hard work. Recognition for "...a job well done" in giving LIFE to me. 

Me & Mom, Mom & Me 5/2013

I was the one that doctor's said wouldn't make it and forty-seven years later I'm still here.  It proves some doctors don't always know what the hell they're talking about, but I digress.  Mom gave birth to me and I want to show my appreciation.

Me & Mom, Mom & Me 1967

It's not bragging, but Mom does enjoy my cooking.  She'll tell anyone that will listen how much she likes the food I prepare.  So I'm cooking her dinner (still not sure what that will be) and dessert.  I couldn't decide which I wanted more, so I'm baking a 7UP cake and a chocolate cake with chocolate butter cream frosting.  Yep, two cakes.  I'm doing it all for my mother to say, "Thanks Mom, I appreciate all that you've done and you're my favorite Mom because you're my only Mom."  It goes without saying how much I Love My Mom, but I will say, "I Love My Mom very much."  Thanks Mom!!!

Mothers Day - 2013

I don't know when, but I stopped getting caught up in the whole commercialization of Mothers Day.  Let's face it; it's all about spending money.  Money spent in the form of a card, flowers, candy, balloons - something.  Those are fine for those that want to give them as gifts.  I prefer the gift of food and will prepare a meal for Mom.  A few years back I made a slide show of the mothers and their children.  It was my way to honor the women of the family.  We've added new mothers to the family since I made this in 2010.  Much love and respect to all our Moms. Take a moment to enjoy the pics.
