Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers out there! (Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 8th.) Moms are a significant part of our lives, personally and professionally.
We just had a mom walk in this morning that is one of our new renters. She is relocating from Florida, engaged to be married soon and moving into her new home. Her husband was supposed to take care of switching over all the utilities and had not gotten it done yet. With a busy 10-year old in tow, she picked up the keys and took on getting the utilities switched over with a little help from our team. We see things like this every week… strong mothers getting things done.
Be sure to take the time to call or write that special mother in your life… whether it is your biological mother, an adoptive mother, a neighbor mother, a church mother or a soccer mom!
M – O – T – H – E – R
“M” is for the million things she gave me,
“O” means only that she’s growing old,
“T” is for the tears she shed to save me,
“H” is for her heart of purest gold;
“E” is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
“R” means right, and right she’ll always be,
Put them all together, they spell
“MOTHER,”
A word that means the world to me.
Howard Johnson (c. 1915)
