I know. Mother’s Day isn’t until Sunday. However, I normally write on Friday before the weekend gets too hectic.
What are your plans for Mother’s Day?
When I was growing up, we normally had a bunch of friends over–families from church with all the mothers, fathers, and kids. My dad would do a big chicken BBQ and each family brought a side or dessert. Mom and I usually made a big batch of potato salad.

It was a beautiful time up around the Great Lakes. While winter has finally paased, and the weather has warmed, the summer swelter hasn’t yet arrived, Hay fields are growing toward mowing season, spring flowers are popping up everywhere. It is truly a beautiful place. And the spring flowers didn’t bother my mother as much when we picked bouquets. The golden rod and wild flowers in the fall about did her in, so they had to sit outside on the cistern lid, in front of the kitchen window.

I’m getting into a book our daughter bought for me–the complete Grimm’s Fairy Tales. I know. I’m weird.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend and a Happy Mother’s Day!
And Don’t Forget…
…to Share the Romance…
Hope your holiday was wonderful!
After Viviane and Jareth return from Clan Belfort, Viviane struggles with her Talents. But she is not alone. Her nephew, Connell, the newly chosen heir of her home clan, is having troubles along the same lines. Partly because he doesn’t understand why he needs Talents. And partly because he misses his old friends from home.
I hadn’t intended to write a series when I began. I really hadn’t. Things just got out of hand.
