Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

Mom congrats. and what will you be doing with your special day?
"All work and no smut makes Cammy lose her edge." ~DG
"Someday I'm going to have a baby and I'm gonna name her L'il Mimi Marquez and I and will sing to her every day and when she's a toddler I will say "L'il Mimi Marquez, clad only in a bubble diaper, will perform her famous play pen handcuff dance to the sounds of breast milk being pumped!" ~Kringas
"All the while making faces like a baby platypus who forget to take some Beano before eating a chimichanga." FindingNamo in reference to Jessica Simpson's singing.
In the meantime, more praise for someone who is not only fun-loving, but gracious, kind and has the most adorable granddaughter I have ever seen! (Not to mention that hunky hubby and beautiful BGG!)
"Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. . ."
I've made no secret that there are certain posters that I keep a special place for, and Mom is very definitely in that group. She provides something I think is so very vital to this forum - a conscience (along with a couple of other very special posters - who are also mothers, go figure!)
She is to our community like a heart is to the human body - and performs pretty much the same task. She keeps our life-blood flowing, and consistently reminds us of the humanity we should reach for within ourselves and each other.
The cookie offerings have become symbolic of maternal acceptance - and to receive them from someone who embodies such grace, awareness and inner-beauty is indeed a blessing.
Mom conitually makes me reach for the better within myself, and that is one of the greatest gifts of all.
Congratulations, Anniversary Buddy! As we've discussed, you and I joined BroadwayWorld on the very same day - and we have a special connection. Have a plateful of cookies with Billy Goat Girl and enjoy your special day! Hooray for Mom!
