Happy Mother’s Day! May your day be filled with lots of love and relaxation ❤️💕!!
My Mother’s Garden
My Mother kept a garden,
Author Unknown
A garden of the heart.
She planted all good things,
That gave my life its start.
She turned me to the sunshine
and encouraged me to dream.
Fostering and nurturing
The seeds of self-esteem.
And when the winds and rain came,
She protected me enough.
But not too much because she knew
I’d need to stand up strong and tough.
Her constant good example
Always taught me right from wrong.
Markers for my pathway
That will last a lifetime.
I am my Mother’s Garden.
I am her legacy.
Happy Mother’s Day from Me and My Garden 🌺
My roses and flowers just burst into bloom the latter part of this week with our temps up in the 80s. Just in time for Mother’s Day my garden is putting on a stellar show. More rose and flora pics below.
My climbing rose Berries and Cream deserves her own showcase here!
A stellar climbing rose Berries and Cream is! She puts on the most amazing show in the spring covered in thousands of blooms. One of my friends calls it a waterfall of roses!
Happy Mother’s Day! 🌺
Dolly , you shd also acknowledge your peri amma, Jaiyyu. She helped your mom and me when Jaiyu stayed with us in Delhi. Jaiyu was a Wonderful Cook and I recall the most delicious items she made specially Ericheri , Kaalan , Olan etc. My kids loved her and so did my Mom. it is too bad Jaiyu died young . You also went and stayed with her in Mumbai . Pl post pictures of Jaiyu and ur mom.
Happy Mother’s Day Everyday !
Your Mom not only nurtured and cared for her own Children but she reached out and took care of her Brother’s Children and Sister’s Children. i recall how Raji stayed in New Jersey to take care of Uma’s Children when Uma was away on a Trip with her Hubby. Raji also was a Great Support for my Kids in Houston when my Hubby left this Planet. Did i mention how Chinna Anna’s kids loved hanging out in Raji’s home when Anna and Manni were in Middle East. Raji also welcome Jaiyyu’s daughter Kalyani in her home for a Family Event. Yes ! Raji was a Mother of all Mothers …. Selfless and Loving and Caring . May Raji’s Soul rest in Peace . Aum Shanthi ! Shanthi Aum!
