HAPPY 89TH BIRTHDAY MOTHER! 8-31-17

       Mother A Blessed and Wonderful Birthday, Mother.
                                          Gloria Pinto

When I think of my mother, I can’t help but go back with her to my childhood.

At that time I was convinced of this: my mother knew "everything"!

During my early childhood, I wondered if my mother had eyes in the back of her head?

My mother was magical and infallible!

My mother is now in her senior years.

With age, we are both realizing a loss of control over some matters in our lives.

We don’t have the good health, vigor or stamina that is associated with youth.

I’ve have to tell you though, my mother continues to be magical!

She still senses the times when her children are in need.

She somehow knows when something is terribly wrong or has miraculously gone right!

My mother a person of love and wonder and class!

Though our lives have changed with years, my mother is still there for me, as well as for her other children.

The transformation is we are older adult children.

We, as her adult children, are now there for her.

The magic of this person whom I call “Mother” is still there!

I love you, Mother!

May God bless and protect you always,

With sincerity, love and gracious gratitude,

Your daughter.
