Hope you had a good Mothers Day with Jessica, Jason and sweet little Emily.<BR/><BR/>Greg, I will check you out. Thanks<BR/><BR/>Putz, your mom must have been the very same age as my mom. I'm glad you have a wonderful wife....<BR/><BR/>Susie, it is a tribute to your mom to remember her so long. My mom was a good mom too.<BR/><BR/>Butterfly Girl - Thank you.<BR/><BR/>Big Dave - you should plant a rose bush just for her, in YOUR yard...lol<BR/><BR/>Jess - I hope you had a great time with your mom (and dad) today...<BR/><BR/>Swim mom - I know that I will get to see my mom again but I sure wish she could have seen her grandkids grow up. Hope you had a good day, today.<BR/><BR/>Jamie Dawn - I think all moms need a little dab of mean to keep the kids on the "straight and narrow" path. I do miss my mom. I love what little children say, they are so cute. Hope you had a great day with you family.<BR/><BR/>Jim - I wish we had more time to visit on Friday. I was busy getting the room set up for the class and I was a little embarassed that I had not had time to change my clothes and dress up a little better. I wasn't able to stay because TF was home with the grandkids and I needed to get back. Hopefully we will get more time to talk at another class. I am going to try and go over to the church earlier, during the day, and get the room set up so we don't have to rush. It sure was good seeing you.<BR/><BR/>Yes, we do miss our mom's when they are gone.<BR/><BR/>Naomi, Thanks for the Mothers Day wish. I did have a wonderful day with the kids.<BR/><BR/>Nosurfgirl - Thanks, hope you had a good day with the family...<BR/><BR/>Fred - I wonder what kind of responses you would get from high schoolers...It could be really interesting. You are lucky to have your mom still alive. There must be something in that Florida air. TF's mom and dad still live in Vero and they are both alive. His dad went through double knee surgery last summer but he is doing very good.<BR/><BR/>Hope you had a good day with the Missus and the girls.<BR/><BR/>BTW: Can you believe that Obama thinks there are 57 states in the US. I got a real laugh out of that one. Even my 6 yr.old grandson knows the correct number. lol. Maybe you should ask that question, as a bonus question, you your finals.Lucy Sternhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15551301072676727397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13030405.post-82397236128312642422008-05-11T15:39:00.000-05:002008-05-11T15:39:00.000-05:00Love these answers.

I should ask my high school students some of these questions...I think I'd get some pretty interesting answers.<BR/><BR/>It must have been very difficult to lose your mom at such an early age.

I am certain that you miss her so much, and I am also certain that you will see her again some day. <BR/>I hope your Mother's Day is wonderful. You are a blessing to your family.<BR/><BR/>Those kids lines are so cute. I like the one about the mom having a "dab of mean" in her. That kid spoke the truth about us moms.
