May 9: Mother's Day

Rancho Bernnardo, CA

Margaret Reid was an ‘old-fashioned’ mom. She married in the depths of the Great Depression, raised three very successful children, was a loyal and supportive wife and a loving daughter and sister to her large Killian clan.
She taught me strong values (“Robin—always be a good boy!”), how to feel, how read, how to be responsible, and how to love. I was very fortunate to have her as a Mother.
So… wherever you are “Happy Mother’s Day, Mom!!”

The sepia is perfect for the picture. And the pink flowers are reminiscent and nostagia.
I think a red bouquet would work well here.

And your words are touching.

To borrow losely from Bill Clinton, maybe we ought to define "good." LOL
Guest 09-May-2004 17:40
And you're still being a good boy! She must have done something right! ;) Seriously, though - a wonderful tribute to your Mom.
