It feels like yesterday that I wrote this post celebrating my mom. Oh how time flies by so quickly. Yet again, another mother's day where I'm thousands of miles away from my mom. I'm feeling somewhat pensive and nostalgic, wishing I was home celebrating this special day with her. Having flowers delivered to mom doesn't seem to do much justice, expecially when I think of all the things that mom has had to put up with, especially with me. Nonetheless, I would have to say that my mom is the best mom in the world, even with her quirks and idiocyncracies. She is a woman full of warmth and grace, one who embodies compassion and kindess to people around her.
Happy Mother's Day Mom! Love you!
About Me
- Joy
- I am a woman with a high-spirited soul. I love God with all my heart, mind and soul. I love the pitter patter of rain and the city lights, the quaintness of old brick roads and buildings, and the fresh scent of a hiking trail and the silence of a book shelf. I have an eclectic taste in music ranging from the oddity of Sufjan Stevens to the sassiness of Taylor Swift. I know the difference between saffron and sage, among other things, and I almost know what tumeric is. I believe in the contagiousness of joy and the basic sweetness of life. Nice things often happen to me - answered prayers, flowers from friends, unexpected phone calls from far away friends, the discovery of delectable desert shops, sweet cards and packages in the mail, and laughter till your tummy hurts. Some things I have but don't use as much as I maybe should are markers and crayons, a passport, a somewhat "perfect pitch", a slip-'n-slide, a camera and common sense. I have a big God who loves me, a beagle/french bull dog mix named Georgie who drives me up the wall yet whom I adore at the same time, and three things I prize: warmth, grace and brains.
