My Dearest Mom,Mother's Day. I can smell the lilacs every year as this day approaches. The dripping fragrance is a memory that is etched upon my heart and soul. Lilacs are beautiful, aren't they Mom! The yummy smell and sweet little blossoms just make you happy and you can't help but smile. I planted some jasmine in my entry just a short time ago. I wish lilacs and Arizona got along better. But the jasmine is deliciously fragrant and the blossoms are very similar to that of our lilacs. When I am out on my porch and the jasmine scent is in the air, I take a deep breath. I smile and think of you.
This day is about you. It always has been. It always will be. Even after nearly 13 years of having my own children call me "mom", this day will forever be yours!
With gratitude you are my mother and
so blessed to be your daughter,
Andrea

That was beautiful! And she is so blessed to be the mother of such a loving daughter.
I think of Grandma whenever I see or smell lilacs too..I hope you had a great mother's day! Love ya!
You are so sweet!
Our lilacs are just starting to bloom and we will be taking a bunch over to her as soon as they do. What an amazing women she is...and how lucky we all are to know her. We will give her a kiss from you, although I think she feels of all of our love no matter how close or far away we are.
