waiting for the bus…
only 4 more for all of first grade. i will never get used to how early schools get out in the south. can’t wait to have both my babies home for the summer though.

a letter of appreciation from my mom
To ALL of my Clickin Moms girls!!!
Please forgive my delay – Murphy’s Law, I had computer issues.
SIMPLY SAID, THERE ARE JUST NO WORDS that can adequately convey my gratitude & appreciation.
WHAT A SPECIAL, SPECIAL SURPRISE!!!! To say that I have been completely overwhelmed by your outpouring of beautiful tributes, so touched by your loving kindness — is a tremendous understatement. I was absolutely speechless, blown away!!! (Happy) tears ran down my cheeks as I looked at each & every one of your lovely photos, intended just for me, & read your thoughtful, sweet words — so much love & thought behind each post. I still can’t believe it! Not really sure I ‘deserve’ all the attention & accolades, but will accept it graciously. YOUR TRIBUTE IS, WITHOUT A DOUBT, ONE OF THOSE MOST PRECIOUS, SPECIAL MOMENTS OF MY LIFE.
I have had 38 Mother’s Days — & though both my children have always made sure ‘my day’ was very special — I want you all to KNOW that THIS Mother’s Day is right up there at the top — thanks to this incredible collaborative effort by all of you! It has meant more to me than I could ever begin to express. I AM THE FORTUNATE ONE. When Ashley invited me to view the CM Daily Project last September, I didn’t know what to expect, but, after 8 months, I am completely ‘addicted ‘ & feel like I have been blessed with many beautiful new friendships. I admire & enjoy your amazing talents, your words of wisdom. Every single day, your goodness & sweet love for your adorable children always makes me smile!!
As mothers, I’m sure you all can relate — to see the incredible happiness & fulfillment that CM has brought to Ashley, the very special, loving friendships that have come into her life — just makes my heart so, so happy!!!!! You ALL are darling girls & I love you, as my own. Some of you have called me your CM mom, & I could not be more honored, grateful, & proud!
my warmest appreciation & hugs to each of you –
from the bottom of my heart — THANK YOU — I will treasure these tributes, forever.
LOVE from your CM MOM,
Susan

Shoot, Susan….I was going for a green flower but the artiste had other ideas. My poor direction aside, I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day. As I’m sure you can see, you have A LOT of fans armed with a lot of cameras! Thank you for taking the time to look at our photos and leave such thoughtful and encouraging words. We are so lucky to have you!

May your day be filled with lots of love and smiles. You are such a wonderful person. Ashley is so lucky to have you!!
For Susan!
Dear Susan,
Thank you so much for constant support and kind words that you write to me (and all of us) here on the Daily. Your comments are always so thoughtful, genuine and uplifting – they always make me smile. It is no wonder that Ashley is as sweet as she is! I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day today!!!

To say that this is a special post is an understatement. It’s not the most perfect picture I’ve ever taken, but it captures the essence of what this day is all about. Without your constant love and support and encouragement these past 35 years, I would not be the wife, daughter, and friend that I am. But, perhaps most importantly, I would not be the mom that I am without having you as my example. You have the biggest heart of anyone I know, and I am so fortunate to have your love, your kindness, and your thoughtfulness shine through in my life in so many ways. Enjoy all the love being sent your way on the Daily Project today; you deserve it…and more. I love you, Mom. And so do these two monkeys.
