I think I'm making up for all the lost time I spent thinking my mother was such a "fuddy duddy" (now I've aged myself for sure). She was anything but! <br /><br />What honor you bestow upon your Mom. No doubt she "tanks" you, even now, from the bottom of her heart.<br /><br />Hugs ...Kathleen https://www.blogger.com/profile/05245926913888212148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-76822638641275914052012-09-06T08:37:09.927-07:002012-09-06T08:37:09.927-07:00What a hilarious story!

This story has a funny side to it, but the bottom line is that she really was a woman to be praised.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing it with us. I love my Norwegian friends, and in fact I also have a few Filipino friends now living in Norway and married to Norwegian men.<br /><br />So, Norway really has a special place in my heart.<br /><br />And, also I praise God your son Tommy is better.<br /><br />Love<br />LidiaCrown of Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08993686012020045284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-33812535943277441182012-09-04T08:21:10.958-07:002012-09-04T08:21:10.958-07:00A memory to make you smile.

I can only imagine the wealth of material I'm leaving behind for my children in terms of their future laughter! <br /><br />We really do laugh a lot in our home, each one of my kids with their own sense of humor. My daughter, in particular, has one of the most endearing, beautiful laughs. I hope she'll always find reasons to keep it.<br /><br />peace~elaineelaine @ peace for the journeyhttp://www.peaceforthejourney.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-16199108920543520432012-09-03T08:47:01.723-07:002012-09-03T08:47:01.723-07:00I can almost hear my grandma's accent when you...I can almost hear my grandma's accent when you wrote in a Norwegian accent.
