For years I have been hearing this commercial about naming a star after your loved one as a gift. I heard it when Mother's Day was coming up, and now I hear it because Father's Day is around the corner.
Decisions, decisions, decisions. It has been discussed here before and it will be discussed again and again...our never ending struggle to keep balance in our lives.
Berryessa Art and Wine Festival
Originally uploaded by debbiegiordanoEvery year on the Saturday of Mother's day weekend, San Jose holds the Berryessa Art and Wine Festival very near Milpitas and bordering Penitencia Creek. Even though this is a one day festival, there are many booths and quite a few locals … (0 comments)
While waiting in line to take my mom to lunch on Mother's Day, I had a brief conversation with a lady who, upon hearing that I'm in real estate, immediately said "Wow, it must be hard for you right now." She honestly perplexed me so I asked her what she meant. … (0 comments)
I was sitting here in my office Saturday doing some work, trying to get most of it done so I could enjoy my evening with my family, when my youngest who is 9 yr old came in and sat down. I looked at him and smiled, he smiled back at me, … (14 comments)
I just saw this and I think they took that from my brother and I. You would think 6 years apart would calm us down. LoL, I am just kidding. 
If it was, my heart goes out to you. 
1948 feature film. I Remember Mama. brought back many memories for me today-The life of a Norwegian immigrant family in 1910 San Francisco centers around Mama and her detailed, pennywise household budget.
I remember my first Mother's Day (30 years ago!) and the incredible magic I felt to have a little child in my arms. I began to understand an aspect of my Mother that had eluded me before. My sweet mother passed away not long before the birth of her great-grandchild--- my … (16 comments)
"I got my real estate license so I can have a more flexible schedule." 
On this Mother's Day I, of course, am so thankful for my four kids and for my own great mom, and my mother-in-law, and the rest of my family. But I'm also thankful for all the moms who I'm honored to call my friend. Without these women in my life, I … (4 comments)
Around the depression, my grandfather was married to his wife, Angelina. Two weeks after the last of their 7 children were born, Angelina died of an infection.
You were my best friend, my mentor, my rock, my life preserver, my balance, my soft place to fall, my keeper of the temper, the stabilizer, the rope that held the sail. You left me almost 9 years ago and I miss you each and every day.

Well looking back Daisy the Real estate lady has to admit that being a mom is really # 1 in the things I have done in this world
As I sit here on a quiet, 'Mother's Day' Sunday afternoon, listening to Michala Petri playing a flute concerto, I reflect on the four astounding women in my life who have taught me so much about what it means to be a woman. I'm often in awe at how fortunate I've … (35 comments)
Mother's Day is 100 years old today! Anna Jarvis, the woman credited with the creation of this day, wanted to pay tribute to mother's with the gift of a white carnation. This was to show the purity of a mother's love!
Hey, it's MOTHERS DAY, Art's out of town, and mom's on a dial up.
Some say it takes a village to raise a child. I say it takes one great mom.
Aloha and Happy Mother's Day
The other day I posted my day with my daugher at her school. I have
been trying to upload the video of her class singing to all the moms. I
have finally got it uploaded and wanted to share it with you.
To my mom: the beautiful lady with the long, smooth fingernails who cared for me and gave me the opportunity to grow up raising horses and other animals! Remember when Stan (younger brother)was born and how Rob (older brother) and I cried & cried because he was not a midget or a girl, how I would get gum … (0 comments)

We will be married 43 years come September 18th and Jeanne has totally supported me in anything that I have wanted to do, within reason that is. She is the mother of our three children and grandmother to our 6 grand children. She made a number of moves across the United … (18 comments)
Mother's day is a great time to spend time with your family. As agents, we often forget what is most important to us. This year, let's try to let those calls go to voicemail for just one day.
Dear Joann,
THANK YOU MAMAN!!
www.724Twinview.comWhen not chatting with and problem solving for my kids (now all young adults) we still are in the real estate business. And boy is that an ever interesting business to be in! March and April saw sales picking up, with pending sales in Pleasant Hill averaging one a day, giving … (2 comments)
We often take our Mothers for granted. I see it all the time. And, I know that I have been guilty of this as well. I look back at my life and realize what a great job she did in raising me, and I realized that I need to tell her … (8 comments)
My mother left this earth on January 2, 2008...this will be my first Mother's Day without her! Sixty Four years of nurturing, care, concern, tenderness, wisdom, sympathy, medical advice, prayer, instinct, perseverance, optimism, risk taking, encouragement, etc...will be sorely missed!
Our youngest daughter splits her time between sort of living at home with us and the remainder of the time is spent at her boyfriend's house (yes Mother, they are living in sin!). She called just before midnight to make sure I was still up (I'm usually up until at least … (6 comments)
Your Mother is always with you.... She's the whisperof the leaves as you walk down the street; she's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks; she's the cool handon your brow when you're not well. Your Mother livesinside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every tear drop.She's the place you came … (21 comments)
I would like to wish all the Mother's and the important women in our lives that fill the shoes of mom a wonderful and happy Mother's Day. May your day be filled with laughter, family and love.
I've probably been living under a rock or something. Until today I didn't realize this Mother's Day was the 100th Anniversary of the first Mother's Day. A celebration dedicated to one mom at a small church in West Virginia in 1908 is now recognized globally.
Once again, we're wishing all of the mothers out there a great Mother's Day! As a son and husband I continue to grow in appreciation for the love, nurturing, sharing, stability and wisdom that my wife and mother have always shown and imparted to their children.Did You Know? The first Mother's Day observance was a … (0 comments)
Tomorrow is the time to celebrate, pamper, and tell the moms in your life how wonderful they are. My wife Marianne is like many of the fine mothers out there. There is never a time in her life that she has put her needs before Ryans. She pampers him, she mothers … (0 comments)

Having considered myself quite tech savvy, this is a whole new world that I cannot wait to explore. Once I have a good grip on how this works and how to utilize it to the best of my ability, I plan to have it be a great resource for my past, … (5 comments)
All you Bikers in the WNC area should pick a special route to take Mom on for this Mother's Day. One of my very favorite is up along the headwaters of the beautiful Nantahala River. This time of year, you'll see lots of trout fisherman wading in the whitewater as it … (0 comments)
I am so glad Spring is here and the warm weather has settled in. I hope it changes the tempo of the Real Estate market around here. Happy Mother's Day to all mothers.
Mother's Day weekend. Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's and Grandmom's.
We ALL have one...or had one. For those of you whose Mother has passed, I KNOW you think about her often and especially on Mother's Day, the 2nd Sunday in May. I know you'll think about all the wonderful times you spent with her. About all the funny things she used … (7 comments)
One evening, as my daughter Megan Grace and I were watching Cinderella III for the gagillianth time, the movie came to a part where the King told the Red -Haired Wicked Step Sister that "Everybody deserves true love."
This picture of my Mother taken when she was 16.
Looking for something to do for mom this weekend? If you're in the Gig Harbor area, why not take her on a tour of some open houses? Chances are you can't buy mom that $1M home for mother's day, but don't you think she'd enjoy touring one? There are 2 homes … (2 comments)
Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms in the Pensacola Florida area and everywhere else. You all know who you are. May your day be the best ever!!! Go enjoy.
It is really an honor to be a mom. I love every minute of it and would trade a thing for it. Just think how much education we get, we wear so many hats. I feel like only yesterday my 2 kids were babies. Now they are in 10 and 11 … (3 comments)
At least twice a week I visit my mother who lives in assisted living. She has Alzethimers but still remembers what she deems important like when I'm coming and how to get around the grocery store. She likes to go out but usually can't remember having been somewhere before although she … (0 comments)

Mother’s day is this Sunday! Don’t forget to do something nice for your Mom! Here are some ideas:
Don't forget Mother's Day is this Sunday. Not sure what to get her? How about a photo album featuring photos from your years together? How about a different color rose to represent each child? If most mother's are like myself, the gift you give doesn't have to be the most expensive, … (6 comments)

Just writing to remind all of you in time for Mother's Day not to forget Mom. Mother's Day is next Sunday so be prepared and don't let it sneak up on you. If you are mailing a card or gift, do it tomorrow.
WHY GOD MADE MOMS 
May 1 marks the advent of the fragrant Lily of the Valley blooms around local gardens. For Mothers it is a delight when their children start bringing them little "boo-kays" of flowers clutched in their muddy fingers.

My children are sprinkled across the county so no visits from them this year. However, I did get their calls wishing me happiness on my day.
Did you ever meet the sweetest child ever? 
You know who you are. You have stayed up endless nights as we cried as kids. You have taught us what it is to be a good person. You have taught us what it takes to be everything we want to be. You were always there whenever we needed you. You … (1 comments)
My daughter joined me in my business about 9 months ago, and today I am thrilled that she decided to do it.
I just read a truly moving blog by Jeff Turner on Mothers Day:
