Very sweet - but I always think of the children's birth mothers on Mother's Day because such a day must be hard on her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-76563560159938801642015-05-11T19:14:19.059-04:002015-05-11T19:14:19.059-04:00looks and sounds like a nearly perfect day.
