"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts."
~ Washington Irving
"Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honour your father and mother - which is the first commandment with a promise - that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on earth."
~ Ephesians 6:1
~ Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's teaching. They will be a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your neck. Proverbs 1:8-9 ~

Delightful post, dearest Kelly-Anne! I just saw that you left a comment on my blog...it would appear we are visiting one another at the same time :)

Dearest Kelly-Anne,
How beautiful and God honoring this is for Mother's Day.
I wish many blessings to all those mother's.
I'm sure you are thrilled to be home, but what a beautiful thing you did in lending a helping hand.
You have a precious heart, my dear.
Thank you for your prayers on behalf of my dear dad.
Sweet blessings too you, Debbie
I know it's not this way for everyone, but this quote is so true for me, and I know it is for you too. Mothers are a blessing. :)
Happy Mothers Day Kelly-Anne! This is a lovely post for Mothers Day.
Beautiful image, quote, and verse for Mother's Day. And I was unaware that Washington Irving had written or said that given that we have read his stories. Have a wonderful weekend with your mother. xoox Su
So beautiful and true words.. xo
