Thankful Thursdays ~ Happy Birthday Mom

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

My mom, Doris Miller Cleary was born August 15, 2017 in Junction City Kansas. She would have been 102 today!

A mother is always with you ...     

She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street.

She's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks.

She's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well.

Your mother lives inside your laughter.

She's crystallized in every tear drop.

She's the place you came from, your first home.

She's the map you follow with with every step that you take.

And nothing on earth can separate you. 

Not time, not space, not even death will ever separate you from your mother.

You carry her inside of you always.       

Fiona Childs        

Happy Birthday Mom!!

Good morning, Dorie... loved this poem. My mother would be turning 100, herself, next month. She's been gone since 1998, but I know she's always with me and I think of her often.

Good morning Dorie. Been some time since I thought about my mother's age, but believe she would be 98 this  year. Enjoy your day!

Dorie I agree a parent is always with you.  My Dad would have been 100 this year.

I see a whole lot of you in that face, Dorie.  My mother was also born in North East Kansas, not far from your mother.
