sisters and mothers



this post is dedicated to my two older sisters who will become mothers very soon.

My mom is a neverending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune. ~Graycie Harmon

There's nothing like a mama-hug. ~Adabella Radici

Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love.
- Mildred B. Vermont

You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be --
I had a mother who read to me.
-- Strickland Gillilan (1869-1954)

i know they will make great mothers because they made fun, awesome older sisters. and we had a wonderful, beautiful, fun mother.

how many mothers do you know, took five of her young children on a bus to the beach and we played with sand and logs and ran in the grass, and who sat each of them at the window sill away from everybody else, between the curtains and the night sky and talked to them like adults
