HAPPY MOTHER’S
DAY!!
Happy Wednesday to everyone. Hope your week is going
well. I am happy to say that I finally finished all my projects for the start
of the summer market season! YEAH!! I made it with three weeks to spare! Now I
hope the season goes well and is profitable. How many of you do summer shows,
festivals, and markets?
Does everyone know what Sunday is?? Yep, that is right……Mother’s
Day! I read this poem the other day and I would like to share it with you. It
is a cute poem and really brings to light the important meaning of life. 
A weary
mother returned from the store,
Lugging
groceries through the kitchen door,
Awaiting
her arrival was her 8 year old son,
Anxious to
relate what his younger brother had done.
T.J. took
his crayons and wrote on the wall!
It’s on
the new paper you just hung in the den,
I told him
you’d be mad at having to do it again.”
She let
out a moan and furrowed her brown,
“Where is
your little brother right now?”
She
emptied her arms and with a purposeful stride,
She marched
to his closet where he had gone to hide.
She called
his full name and she entered his room.
He
trembled with fear-he knew that meant doom!
For the
next ten minutes, she ranted and raved
About the
expensive wallpaper and how she had saved.
Lamenting
all the work it would take to repair,
She
condemned his actions and total lack of care.
The more
she scolded, the madder she got,
Then
stomped from his room, totally distraught!
When she
saw the wall, her eyes flooded with tears.
The message
she read pierced her soul with a dart.
It said, “I
love Mommy,” surrounded by a heart.
Well, the
wallpaper remained, just as she found it,
With an
empty picture frame hung to surround it.
A reminder
to her and indeed to all,
Take time
to read the handwriting on the wall.
