MOTHER'S DAY

T
This mother (The bride of my youth) is doing mother stuff.  She is protecting her chickens from doing something stupid like trying to eat out of Lasha's dish.  Lasha was eating chicken.  Mom is always there to do mom stuff.  

Mother's day is sort of like Christmas.  Thinking people know Jesus was not born on December 25th and that that date was chosen for nefarious reasons.  But it is the day we celebrate Jesus' birth.  Mother's Day was created by people who wanted to introduce another time of buying and selling.  Mother's Day was made for you to spend money.  However, your mother is worthy of honor and this is an opportunity to honor and serve our first love.

The following was taken from a missionary site:
