Happy Mothers Day!









My Mom.



















Born
in
1921...










In
Richmond
Virginia...













She grew
from
a
sweet
little girl...






to
an
adventurous
young
lady.






She
had
lots
of
friends...







and a
dog
named
Zip.








She
played
field
hockey.





She
was
a
biker...








long
before
I ever
spun a
wheel.




She
went
off
to
Wisconsin





to
get
her
Masters
in PE.





There
she
met
young
Calvin
Steussy...













And
the rest
is
history.






They
had
three
darling
little
kids...






Seven
years later,
Ed...





Then
Christopher
Robin...

(and
Pooh
Bear).







And
we all
grew
up!




She
must
have done
something
right.






We
always
remember
her...








Chris
calls her
every
Saturday....





Cally
sends
her flowers
every
month...





Nic
stops by
every
Friday
and
Sunday





to talk
news
weather
and
sports.







Ed
calls
almost
every day


to
discuss
their
exciting
Scrabble
games.





My Tom
fixes
her
steak dinner
every
Sunday.









I
plant
her
trees.













I've
grown
up...












....with
an
amazing
Mom....







and
I
love
her.








Happy
Mother's
Day,
Mom!
