HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY MOTHER: PEGGY CHOATE ROGERS.

MY MOTHER HAS 4 CHILDREN...2 BOYS, 2 GIRLS...THE OLDEST

SON BEING MY HALF BROTHER.

MOTHER IS A HEART MONITOR TECH. SHE HAS WORKED AT

ST. MARY'S HOSPITAL FOR 31 YEARS...WHEN WE WERE GROWING UP

SHE ALWAYS WORKED IN THE LONGFELLOW JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL

CAFETERIA, SO SHE ONLY WORKED THE HOURS WE WERE AT SCHOOL

AND SHE WAS OFF WHEN WE WERE OUT OF SCHOOL. SHE IS A VERY

HARD WORKER, ALWAYS GOING BEYOND WHAT IS REQUIRED OF HER.

SHE SEWS, PAINTS, ARRANGES FLOWERS, BROUGHT HOME ROCKS AND

DRIFT WOOD FROM THE LAKE TO DECORATE HER FLOWER BEDS, IS

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS FOR DECORATING AND COOKING...SHE CAN

COOK A FRIED CHICKEN OR CHICKEN FRIED STEAK THAT HAS MADE

MY DADDY HAPPY FOR OVER 50 YEARS...SHE IS THE ONE YOU WANT

AT YOUR BEDSIDE WHEN YOU ARE SICK...SHE HAS A SERVANT'S HEART...

A DEEP LOVE FOR ANIMALS....DEEP LOVE FOR FAMILY AND HAD A

VERY DIFFICULT TIME MOURNING THE PASSING OF HER PARENTS...

THEY DIED WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER...BOTH WHILE I

WAS PREGNANT WITH MY DAUGHTER, AMY...BUT GRANDMA

KNEW I WOULD HAVE A GIRL AND MY SISTER WOULD HAVE A BOY.

MY AMY WAS BORN IN JULY AND MY NEPHEW TJ IN AUGUST.

MOTHER IS A GIRLIE GIRL. SHE LOVES NATIVE AMERICAN

ART AND TURQUOISE....SHE LOVES JEWELRY AND PURSES AND

SHOES...ALL TRAITS SHE PASSED ON TO ME AND MY SISTER.....

BUT EVEN MORE, SETTING ALL THAT ASIDE....SHE IS A CHRISTIAN

AND KNOWS THAT THIS LIFE IS JUST TEMPORAL. THAT IS THE

FREE GIFT THAT IS PRICELESS.

MOTHER HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIKE A LIONESS..."DON'T MESS WITH

MY CHILDREN"...FIERCELY PROTECTIVE...ANOTHER TRAIT SHE PASSED

ON TO ME AND MY SISTER.

WE HAVE SO MANY FUNNY STORIES AND I AM GOING TO START SHARING

SOME OF THEM OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.

I LOVE YOU MOTHER.

I WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

YOU WERE A WONDERFUL DAUGHTER TO YOUR PARENTS

I ALWAYS REMEMBER WHAT YOU PENNED IN MY FIRST BIBLE:

MY DEAR DAUGHTER,

FEAR NOT TOMORROW

GOD IS ALREADY THERE

MOTHER HAS 8 GRAND CHILDREN AND 11 GREAT GRAND CHILDREN.

IRENE RAGAN

MY MOTHER IN LOVE

IRENE HAS 4 CHILDREN: 2 BOYS AND 2 GIRLS.

HER OLDEST SON PASSED ON FROM CANCER.

SHE IS A TWO TIME CANCER SURVIVOR AND TOUGH...

SHE FELL OUTSIDE LIKE 2 YEARS AGO AND DID NOT TELL ANYONE

UNTIL SHE WOKE MY FATHER IN LOVE UP AT ABOUT 0300 AND SAID

SHE WAS HURTING AND NEEDED TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL....

YES, SHE WAS HURTING...SHE HAD BROKE HER SHOULDER JOINT OFF FROM

THE BONE TO HER ARM WHEN SHE FELL.....SO SHE SUFFERED IN SILENCE

FOR OVER 12 HOURS BEFORE TELLING ANY ONE BECAUSE SHE THOUGHT

SHE JUST BRUISED HER ARM.

OUR DAUGHTER WAS HER FIRST BORN GRAND CHILD....OUR SON, THE ONLY

GRANDSON. SHE HAS 5 GRAND CHILDREN....4 GIRLS AND ONE BOY

SHE HAS 2 GREAT GRAND CHILDREN...1 GIRL AND 1 BOY.

SHE TAUGHT SUNDAY SCHOOL FOR YEARS. SHE TAUGHT ADULT

BUSINESS CLASSES AT AUTRY VO-TECH AND HER GREATEST LOVE WAS

BEING A KINDERGARTEN TEACHER...AND SHE WAS GOOD AT IT.

IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER TO RETIRE BECAUSE SHE LOVED

TEACHING SO VERY MUCH. SHE WAS A TEACHER THAT HAD THE GIFT

TO TEACH AND SHE TAUGHT BECAUSE SHE ENJOYED IT SO MUCH.

SHE LOVES CROSS STITCH AND THE PLASTIC STITCHING WHERE YOU CAN

MAKE KLEENEX BOXES, ORNAMENTS, AND LETTER HOLDERS....I CAN'T

REMEMBER WHAT IT IS CALLED BUT SHE LOVES DOING THAT. SHE

HAS A GREEN THUMB FOR GROWING PLANTS AND ALWAYS....ALWAYS...

WOULD SPEND HOURS PLAYING WITH HER GRAND CHILDREN...WHEN AMY

WAS BORN SHE SENT HER A BIRTHDAY CARD EVERY WEEK FOR THE FIRST

6 MONTHS OF HER LIFE AND HAS TAKEN TONS OF PICTURES OF

EVERY GRAND CHILD.

SHE LOVED TRAVELING WITH MY FATHER IN LOVE IN THEIR AIRSTREAM

TRAILER...THEY BELONGED TO AN AIRSTREAM TRAVEL CLUB AND

WOULD ATTEND RALLIES ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES. THE

ONE PLACE SHE DREAMED OF GOING AND NEVER GOT TO WAS

ALASKA. I WOULD HAVE SO LOVED SEEING HER REACH THAT DREAM

BUT HEALTH ISSUES PREVENTED IT.

FAMILY VERY IMPORTANT. SHE TOOK CARE OF BOTH HER MOTHER AND HER

MOTHER AND FATHER IN LOVE....BLESS GRANDPA RAGAN....IRENE WAS

HAVING SOME DINNER PARTY AT THE HOUSE WHEN GRANDPA RAGAN

CAME DOWN THE HALL IN HIS LONG HANDLES WONDERING WHAT

WAS GOING ON. THEY GREW UP IN A TIME WHEN YOU TOOK CARE

OF FAMILY AND HAD RESPECT FOR YOUR ELDERS. THEY WERE

VERY GOOD TO THEIR PARENTS. IRENE LOST HER FATHER TO

WHAT THEY THINK WAS LEUKEMIA, WHEN SHE WAS IN HER EARLY

20'S. SHE WAS A DADDY'S GIRL AND IT WAS A VERY SAD DAY WHEN

HER FATHER PASSED. IRENE AND MY FATHER IN LOVE ARE BORN AND

RAISED ARKANSAS KIDS...AND ARE CHRISTIANS.

I LOVE YOU IRENE AND WE WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

I AM SORRY THE PICTURES ARE BLURRY BUT I DO NOT HAVE A SCANNER

AND MY HUSBAND TOOK THESE PICTURES OF PICTURES.

YOU NOW KNOW WHAT DEBBIE LOOKS LIKE.

I SPENT SATURDAY AT MY AUNT PATRICIA'S HELPING HER PACK FOR

HER MOVE. MOVING IS A LOT OF WORK AND SINCE MY MOTHER HAS

TO WORK A TWELVE HOUR SHIFT TODAY I AM GOING TO SPEND THE

DAY AGAIN, HELPING AUNT PATRICIA. I AM GOING TO GIVE HER A

PEDICURE.

I WANT TO WISH

MY SISTER SHERRY, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

MY AUNT JEAN, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY AUNT PATRICIA, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY COUSIN SUZIE, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY NIECE HEIDI, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY FRIEND DORIS, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY FRIEND ROBBI, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

MY FRIEND TAWNA, A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY


I WANT TO WISH EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY BLOGGING FRIENDS A

VERY HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY AND THANK YOU FOR SPENDING A PART

OF YOUR MOTHER'S DAY WITH ME.

MY PRAYERS CONTINUE TO GO UP TO GOD'S THRONE ROOM OF MERCY AND

GRACE KNOWING THAT GOD IS OUR ONLY HOPE.

I PRAY FOR THOSE MOTHER'S WHO LONG FOR A CALL FROM THEIR

CHILDREN AND IT NEVER COMES. I PRAY IF YOU ARE ESTRANGED

FROM YOUR MOTHER...PLEASE LET THIS BE THE YEAR OF RESTORATION.

I WATCHED MY AUNT GO THROUGH HER MAIL YESTERDAY HOPING

TO FIND A MOTHER'S DAY CARD...NO CARD....EVEN AS TOUGH AS

TIMES ARE...YOU COULD SEND A LETTER...YOU COULD MAKE A CARD.

PLEASE CONTACT YOUR MOTHER.

MOTHER'S DAY BLESSINGS

HUGS

PINK SATURDAY

TODAY IS THAT BEAUTIFUL DAY OF THE WEEK: "PINK SATURDAY"

OUR LOVELY HOSTESS IS BEVERLY AT http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com

THIS WEEK THERE ARE 161 PARTICIPANTS. PLEASE STOP BY AND SHOW YOUR

APPRECIATION TO BEVERLY. SHE HAS WONDERFUL NEWS ABOUT HER

MOTHER....SHE IS HEALING, PRAISE GOD, BUT THE PHYSICAL THERAPY IS

VERY PAINFUL. MY MOTHER IN LOVE, IRENE, KNOWS ABOUT THAT PAIN.

I WISH THE AMAZING DETAIL SHOWED UP ON THIS SWEET LITTLE GIRL.

MY SISTER BOUGHT THIS FOR MY BIRTHDAY 5 YEARS AGO AND EVERY YEAR ON

MY BIRTHDAY I TAKE HER OUT OF THE HUTCH AND LOOK AT THE AMAZING

DETAIL AND SAY A PRAYER FOR MY SISTER. THE FROSTING ON THE CAKE

IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SHADE OF PINK...AND THERE ARE EVEN CAKE

CRUMBS ON THE PLATE. HER WINGS ARE CLEAR...SUCH INTRICATE DETAIL

FOR SOMETHING MAYBE 4" TALL.

MY BIRTHDAY IS MAY 10TH...MOTHER'S DAY. I WILL BE DOING MY MOTHER'S DAY

POST TOMORROW WITH PICTURES OF MY MOTHER AND MY MOTHER IN LOVE.

THERE WILL EVEN BE A COUPLE OF PICTURES OF ME.

MY SISTER SENT ME THIS BEAUTIFUL ARRANGEMENT FOR MY

BIRTHDAY. THE CUP AND SAUCER ARE A BEAUTIFUL SHADE OF SOFT

PINK, TRIMMED IN GOLD. SHE SENT MY MOTHER ONE FOR MOTHER'S

DAY AND SHE WAS SENT ONE....WHEN SHE COMES HOME FOR VACATION,

WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A TEA PARTY WITH OUR TEA CUPS.

I HAVE NEVER BEEN SENT A TEA CUP ARRANGEMENT, SO I NATURALLY

THOUGHT IT WAS AWESOME HOW THEY DISPLAY IT.

THIS DID NOT COME OUT CLEAR....IT IS MY FAVORITE PICTURE OF

ME AND MY SISTER. IT WAS A VERY RARE MOMENT THAT SHE CLUNG TO

ME...USUALLY I WAS CLINGING TO HER. WE ALWAYS HAD PRETTY DRESSES

TO WEAR.




THANK YOU SWEET SISTER. I LOVED IT AND WILL TREASURE IT FOR EVER

JUST LIKE EVERY GIFT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME.

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL TEAPOT MOTHER AND DADDY SENT ME FOR

MY BIRTHDAY. IT HAS A PINK ROSEBUD ON THE LID AND THE FULL

ROSE BLOOM ON THE TEAPOT BODY. THE HANDLE HAS A SMALL LINE

OF GOLD. I JUST LOVE IT.

I WILL BE 54 YEARS OLD SUNDAY...I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE TIME HAS GONE.

I AM GETTING OLD BUT HAVE A YOUNG MIND.

THANK YOU MOTHER AND DADDY. IT IS BEAUTIFUL.

I LOVE YOU BOTH.

THANK YOU FOR SPENDING PINK SATURDAY WITH ME.

I JUST WANTED TO MENTION THAT I HAVE A SERIOUS EYE CONDITION AND

I SEE MY EYE DOCTOR EVERY THREE MONTHS. I TYPE IN CAPITAL LETTERS

BECAUSE IT REDUCES MY EYE STRAIN WHEN I PROOF READ WHAT I WRITE.

GOD ASSURED ME....BLESSED ARE MY EYES FOR THEY SEE. I HAVE ALREADY HAD

CATARACT SURGERY ON BOTH EYES AND HAVE MACULAR DEGENERATION.

I ONLY MENTION THIS AS AN EXPLANATION FOR WHY I TYPE IN CAPITAL

LETTERS. BEING A NURSE, I LEARNED, NEVER ASSUME ANY THING AND

STAY AWAY FROM HE SAID, SHE SAID, AND I HEARD.

I HOPE YOU CAN COME BACK FOR MOTHER'S DAY AND IF NOT I WISH YOU

A BEAUTIFUL MOTHER'S DAY. I PRAY PEACE AND SWEET MEMORIES

FOR THOSE WHOSE MOTHERS HAVE PASSED ON AND I PRAY

RESTORATION FOR THOSE ESTRANGED FROM THEIR MOTHERS'.




HUGS AND BLESSINGS

"OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY"

TODAY IS OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY. PLEASE STOP BY AND TELL THE LOVELY

SUSAN HELLO, AND VISIT ALL THE OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY BLOGS WHO

ARE PARTICIPATING. http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com

TODAY IS MY FIRST TIME TO JOIN OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY.

ON APRIL 30, 2009 I WENT TO OKC WITH MY HUSBAND FOR HIS DOCTORS'

APPOINTMENT.

ON THE WAY HOME I BEGGED HIM TO DRIVE ME THROUGH ONE OF

MY VERY FAVORITE TOWNS GUTHRIE, OKLAHOMA. GUTHRIE IS FULL

OF HISTORY AND TRADITION AND.......VICTORIANS.

THESE ARE SOME OF THE HOUSES WE FOUND. I AM SAVING SOME OF

THEM INCLUDING THE HOUSE I JUMPED OUT AT THE CURB TO MEET THE

LADY WHO OWNED THE HOUSE, FOR ANOTHER OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY.

THESE NEXT PICTURES ARE IN DOWN TOWN GUTHRIE AT THE

APOTHECARY GARDEN. IT HAD FINISHED BLOOMING THE EARLY

SPRING FLOWERS AND BEGINNING TO BLOOM WITH OTHERS.

ON TWO WALLS IN BEAUTIFUL PINK STONE ARE THE DONORS

WHO HELPED MAKE THE APOTHECARY GARDEN POSSIBLE. SOME JUST HAVE

THE NAME OF THE PERSON THEY HAVE DONATED IN MEMORY OF, AND

SOME HAVE THEIR NAME AND THEN A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN VERSE.

WHEN LEAVING THE GARDEN IF YOU TURN TO THE LEFT, THEY HAVE THE

PHARMACY MUSEUM. WE DIDN'T GO IN BUT WE LOOKED IN THE WINDOW.

BEING A NURSE I WOULD HAVE FOUND IT INTERESTING BUT MY HUSBAND,

NOT SO MUCH.....AND IN ALL FAIRNESS TO HIM, HE HAS A BAD BACK AND JUST

STANDING IS VERY, VERY HARD ON HIM.

ONLY THE GOLD COLORED FISH SHOWED UP, BUT THEY HAVE ONE LIKE OUR

PATCHES, THAT IS WHITE AND GOLD...(ONLY OUR PATCHES IS MUCH BIGGER..

OUR POND FISH ARE MY HUSBAND BABIES...THEY ARE 6 YEARS OLD.) THEY

HAD AN ALL WHITE FISH..VERY BEAUTIFUL....LOTS OF LITTLE ONES SWIMMING.

EVEN THOUGH IT IS ON A DOWNTOWN CORNER, THE GARDEN, ON THIS

DAY WAS SO PEACEFUL AND BIRDS WERE SINGING EVERY WHERE. YOU COULD

HEAR THE TRICLE OF THE FOUNTAIN, AND THE HUMID SWEAT DRIPPING

OFF ME.....BUT BEING IN THE GARDEN IS MY FAVORITE PLACE.

THIS BLANKET FLOWER DID NOT TURN OUT VERY WELL BUT THERE

ARE SOME THINGS I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE BLANKET FLOWER. THEY

HAVE SIGNS NEXT TO THE DIFFERENT FLOWER(BUT I WANT TO GO

BACK AT A LATER DATE AS I EITHER THE FLOWERS HAVE NOT COME UP

OR THEY WILL DO MORE PLANTINGS NOW THAT THE WEATHER IS NICE.

THE BLANKET FLOWER LEAVES WHEN CRUSHED CAN MAKE A TOPICAL

MEDICINE THAT HELPS GOUT AND THEY CAN MAKE A MEDICINE

THAT WORKS LIKE A DIURETIC. (please note, I don't know if this is true

or not...it is just what the sign said)





THANK YOU FOR JOINING ME TODAY.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO PRAY FOR OLDE DAME PENNIWIG'S SON. ELIPESY

MY SISTER SENT ME THESE BEAUTIFUL ANGELS A FEW YEARS AGO.

SHE HAS THE SAME ANGELS. THEY ARE MUSICAL AND WHEN YOU WIND

UP THE BOTTOM OF THEM IT PLAYS "THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGS."

IT SAYS , "SISTERS ARE GIFTS TO TREASURE FOREVER."






THEY ARE THE FIRST ISSUE IN THE KINDRED SPIRITS.

IT IS SO VERY SPECIAL TO ME AND I KEEP IT IN MY BIG DISPLAY

CABINET AWAY FROM MY CATS. WE ALWAYS SAID WHEN WE

LOOKED AT OUR SISTER ANGELS WE WOULD PRAY FOR EACH OTHER.

THANK YOU SHERRY, FOR THE JOY IT HAS BROUGHT ME ALL THESE

YEARS. MY DISPLAY CABINET IS FULL OF BEAUTIFUL GIFTS FROM YOU.







THIS IS THE FIRST BEAUTIFUL EGG MY DADDY BOUGHT FOR ME

AND HE BOUGHT ONE FOR MY SISTER, ALSO.

I WISH MY CAMERA COULD TRULY CAPTURE THE BEAUTY OF IT, THE WAY

YOU ALL PHOTOGRAPH THINGS...I THINK IT IS MY CAMERA AND THE

PERSON TAKING THE PICTURE.....LOL

IT IS ALL PINK EXCEPT FOR THE WHITE SECTION AT THE BASE OF THE

EGG. IT SAYS "MY DAUGHTER, MY JOY" IN GOLD.

AT THE TWO LITTLE POINTS THERE AT THE BOTTOM ARE TWO PINK

RHINESTONES...BRILLIANT SPARKLE. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE EGG,

ALL THE WAY AROUND ARE 14 PINK RHINESTONES....7 ON EACH SIDE

OF THE EGG. THERE IS A GOLD STRIP GOING UP THE EGG AND BACK

DOWN AT WHERE THE EGG OPENS. THERE ARE 80 TINY PALE PINK

RHINESTONES...40 ON EACH SIDE. IT IS SO VERY BEAUTIFUL.

DADDY MAKES ME THINK OF MY HEAVENLY FATHER, WHO SOME TIMES

SURPRISES US WITH A "JUST BECAUSE BLESSING."

BEAUTIFUL WHITE ON THE INSIDE.

FOR BEING YOU...FULL OF SURPRISES.









THIS WAS A GOODWILL PURCHASE FOR .50 CENTS. IT IS VERY

UNUSUAL. ON THE BOTTOM IN GOLD IT STATES...

FORMALITIES

BY BAUM BROS.

VICTORIAN ROSE COLLECTION.

IT IS TRIMMED WITH A SMALL GOLD LINE AROUND THE BOTTOM

AND THERE IS A GOLD LINE AROUND THE RUFFLE AT THE TOP.

WHAT IS UNUSUAL TO ME AND IF YOU ALL HAVE ONE OR KNOW ABOUT THEM

LET ME KNOW......THERE ARE ARE 5 TULIP TYPE THINGS AT THE TOP.....THAT

ARE SEALED TO FORM 5 LITTLE BUD VASES.....I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY

ARE CALLED BUT IT SURE IS PRETTY. YOU CAN SEE INTO THE BOTTOM OF

THE VASE BUT IT IS NOT OPEN ALL THE WAY ACROSS....IT FORMS THOSE 5

LITTLE BUD VASES.

IT IS HEAVY TO BE SO SMALL.

THAT IS ALL I HAVE FOR THIS PINK SATURDAY.

BE SURE AND STOP BY AND LEAVE A LOVE MESSAGE FOR BEVERLY. SHE IS

TAKING CARE OF HER MOTHER WHO IS STILL IN A LOT OF PAIN.

AMY FINISHED CHEMOTHERAPY TODAY. I STARTED GIVING HER

NEUPOGEN AND NEUMEGA SHOTS. SHE IS VERY TIRED AND THE SHOTS

MAKE YOUR BONES HURT...BUT BLESS HER HEART SHE NEVER...NEVER...

COMPLAINS OR TALKS NEGATIVE. SHE TRULY IS MY HERO. SHE IS

THAT RARE SURVIVOR, ALWAYS THINKING OF LEILA. HER WEIGHT WENT UP

FROM 89 POUNDS TO 91 POUNDS BUT I THINK THE FLUIDS HELPED HYDRATE

HER AND THUS THE WEIGHT GAIN. SHE IS EATING...SHE IS HUNGRY AND

LOVING V-8 JUICE. SHE WAS SO VERY EXCITED TODAY AS HER

NEW WIG CAME THROUGH THE MAIL. SHE LOVES IT AND IT IS SO VERY

SOFT. SHE HASN'T LOST HER SHORT HAIR YET...THAT MADE HER LAUGH

AS SHE STILL HAS HER HAIR. LEILA, BLESS HER BRAVE HEART, IS

GETTING HER HAIR CUT TODAY, SATURDAY. IT IS SO LONG SHE CAN

ALMOST SET ON IT, AND THE MOST SHE HAS EVER HAD CUT OFF IS

TWO INCHES. SHE IS GOING TO LET THEM CUT IT ABOVE HER

SHOULDERS BUT SHE HAS A LONG FALL WIG COMING IN THE MAIL

AND THEY KNOW SOMEONE WHO CAN MAKE A WIG FOR HER FROM HER

OWN HAIR...AND THEN SHE WILL HAVE A WIG MADE OF HER OWN

NATURAL HAIR. REMEMBER HER THIS SATURDAY MORNING.

THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOR PRAYING FOR AMY.

SHE IS SO VERY BRAVE IT MAKES ME CRY WITH JOY. I HAVE SUCH

PEACE KNOWING SHE IS CRADLED IN GOD'S HEALING HANDS AND KNOWING

SHE LOVES THE LORD.
