Posted on May 12, 2024 by HelenFern

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there – a mom being anyone who nurtures. Are you taking mom out to dinner or making her something at home? I never had kids, but I have wonderful step children that always make me feel important. I hope other moms are as blessed as me!

Today is also my 40th anniversary – and I’d do it all again!

Did you get to see the Aurora Borealis? It’s always been on my bucket list to see them – and Friday night I did!! Right here from my backyard in the Willamette Valley – awe inspiring!

Now it’s time to get down to dinner –
