Happy Mothers' Day

Happy Mothers’ Day to me
And every other mother!
Today I spent some time with both
My daughter and her brother.

And since my son and wife have kids
The day passed quickly by,
With Hadley laughing up a storm
And Henry, who’s my guy.

My kids and grandkids got me cards
And pictures in a frame;
My husband bought me tulips
I received with much acclaim.

This holiday was never one
That ranked high on my list,
But now with grandkids on the scene,
It’s one I can’t resist.

I am at last ready for grandchildren Ilene. Problem is none of mine are in any rush. Nice poem from a nice day.
