Well, Mother's Day is off to a rough start, but in honor of my mother, here is a little about her....
My mother had me at a very young age and raised me for the most part as a single mother. She was very lucky in the men department though, and always had an admirer (or 2!!!) wanting to marry her! It was almost ridiculous at how fast a man would want to marry my mom...I'm talking within a month of meeting her they were popping the question! I obviously didn't inherit that trait from her. :) Anyway, she always struggled to make ends meet, but managed somehow to feed my dreams of singing, dancing, playing the flute & piccolo, acting, etc by coming up with money to keep me in classes for all of my silly, lofty dreams. I even managed to get Best Dressed at school in the 6th grade because she allowed me to charge up her credit card to get cute school clothes that year. My mom is the funniest, smartest, most creative and quick-witted woman I have ever come across! She has kept me laughing throughout the years with her practical jokes and lightning fast sense of humor. I'm thankful for everything that makes her unique and for all that she does for me and for Austin.
I love you Mom! Happy Mother's Day!

Flowers for Mother's Day
Send Mom organic flowers this year for Mother's Day like these gorgeous Sunset Roses from Organic Bouquet.
Description from site:
In Key West, the locals gather every evening at dusk to applaud the sunset's gorgeous colors as it sinks into the sea. We feel the same way about these incredible, multi-toned roses. Definitely worth applauding, their vibrant hues become richer and more impressive as each bloom slowly unfurls. With their amazing colors and Veriflora certification, these roses are definitely a regal experience. Includes one dozen long-stem roses.
