"Thank you, Lord, for these [three] precious gifts" I wanted to bump this, even though I only have two. :) They certainly are my greatest blessings in life. They are such good children; so easy to raise. After the first one was born, and I saw her for the first time, I thought to myself, "There is no way I could ever doubt there is a God, ever again". Something about seeing a beautiful life that grew in your tummy, just changes your heart and soul forever. You are never the same, after you become a mother.

And then, hopefully, God will bless you further with grandchildren, SB!!
There is a whole new dimension to that, not having direct 24/7 responsibility and a lot more fun!
I have eight, and a one-year old great-grandson; each special and unique.

"and for the one who made you the so special man you are."
Thank You for the acknoweldgement to my mother.
She and my father adopted me when I was almost 6.
They both instilled old fashioned virtues in me.
Both have long ago departed.
Both are at Home with HIM, I am sure.

Thanks to all of you for your birthday wishes. We had a faculty get together with cake and all here at work. My wife's going to cook me shish-ka-bobs on the grill (steak, onion, peppers, etc.) tonight. Clear skies, warm, balmy breezes that make the palm trees sway -- t's been a good day. Heck, it's been a good year! Thanks again.

What a wonderful tribute to moms everywhere...
I guess the part that made my cry the most, was about moms putting pinwheels and teddy bears on their childrens graves...for you see, one of my boys died, many years ago, when he was 15...when we go to visit his grave, I talk to him there, put flowers on his grave, sometimes put a little trinket or something he would like on his grave...I was blessed to have him for a little more than 15 yrs, before he died, due to leukemia...he was my dear boy in life, and is still my dear boy, tho now with the Lord...I am so glad that I went to every school function, to every baseball game he played in, that I spent tons of time with him, trying to be as good a mom as I could...when he died, I had no regrets, because I knew in my heart, I did all I could to make sure he was a beloved son...we never know how and when our children may leave us...and once gone, we cannot make up for lost time...
Every time I see someone be unjustly mean to a child, or see a child neglected, it breaks my heart, because I know all too well how fragile life is...
But on the brighter side, I still have my other son...When he went away to college, and he was no longer around the house, I cried and cried...it surely was not as severe as having a child die, but gosh, it was so difficult getting used to that empty nest...
Today my surviving son lives but 60 miles from us, so we see him as often as possible...in fact this weekend, we are traveling up from our home in Olympia, Washington to visit the son for a weekend, up in his home in Seattle Washington...
Weekends when my husband and I visit the son, or when he comes down and spends the weekend with us, are the greatest of all weekends...
Kids, they are Gods gift, and the greatest gift of all...

Just saw this thank you from my son - #50 - made in haste as he exited a party for him at the University and was leaving for home.
Afraid you might not see his thank you, and wanted to add my own for your warm wishes.
Free Republic members truly are wonderful!

Thanks for the posts. My tear ducts appreciate the workout. We may need a tear alert here on FR.
Thanks to my Mom, who stayed with my brother at the hospital when he was sick 15 years ago.
