Mothers Day

Today is Mothers day - Happy Mothers Day to All Mothers in the Challenge.

I bought these roses, online, in an effort to ameliorate any disappointment that Sally was going to experience in the event her son's didn't send her a card for Mother's Day. Alas my fears were realized so I sent a copy of this photo to their wives, explaining my actions in no uncertain terms, and the buggers better ring her.

Sally saw my emails and suggested that I share this photo with all of you Mothers in the Land of the BlogMonster. I am not a big flower person but Sally assures me that they are beautiful, so from Us to You;

Happy Mother's Day

Thank you from me, too! I agree, she is a lucky lady! And a Happy Mother's Day to her from me, as well!

What lovely roses, Ron. Sally must have been so pleased. You did a nice job with the photo.

Australia shares the North American Mother's Day instead of the UK one?

Those boys better have called Sally or else they may just face the wrath of the WoW Systers! Sally's got the better end of the deal, keeping you and pawning the sons off on their wives it seems. Happy Mother's Day Sally - I bet those roses are even more lovely than the photo.

Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes and for sharing Sally's roses and your story.

My DS sent me some flowers by FedEx and they didn't leave them until two days later. I didn't see their note on the floor of the porch. The iris opened, but the stargazer lilies look pretty dried up. Oh, that's what it was, a dried flower arrangement!

Ron, it turns out you're an old softie after all!!!!! What a thoughtful man you are!!! Hope those boys tow the line!

Thanks to Sally and to you for sharing her flowers. Hope Mother's Day was wonderful for her!

Lovely flowers...and, more importantly, a loving husband to look after her in case the younger boys don't step up. Hope her MD was happy!

Rachel said...

Good man! The roses are lovely and that was very thoughtful of you, to "remind" her sons via their wives (and very smart, too!).

Kathy said...

You are so sweet. That was a great thing to do. I love how you contacted the wives and not the menfolk.
