I am grateful for mothers

On Friday morning I was mowing the yard at my mom's house and Garrett was sitting by her. As I mowed I watched great Grandma talking with Garrett and how he responded. He went in the house and found her cane for her. Soon he returned into the house and retrieved a garbage sack. Soon she had him pulling weeds and putting them in the sack to keep things clean. At 83 she continues to do what I've seen all the mothers around me do, that is to patiently help teach and guide us all to become better. Mothers seem to be able to sense when someone needs a little extra love, a hug, a story, a treat, or a magical kiss to make it all better. Mothers are awesome!
