Celebrate Mother's Day by enjoying this sassy and sophisticated song performed by Fiona Sullivan.
If you take a moment, like I should have done long ago and far away - To think about it and analyze what mom truly wants for mother's day, you may arrive and the following conclusion and realization.
It's not a visit to the beauty parlor, or spa for a manicure, pedicure, massage or a facial.
It is not Sunday brunch with mimosas, not a shopping day!
As I should have realized long before I did, what mom really and truly wants, I believe is some basic, love, peace, quiet and alone time to show appreciation.
It is too late for me, but it may not come too late for you.
