Jake at Time after Time has a Sunday Post Challenge…today’s theme, very appropriately, is MOTHER’S DAY.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO EVERY MOM!
Here are some flowers!
And some chocolates!
”When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.” ~Sophia Loren, Women and Beauty

Thank you, thank you, Pat! Glad you like it. Thank you for the Mother’s Day wishes…I extend them to everyone who is a mother or has the heart of a mother. 🙂 I plan on keeping a journal so I can post about Singapore when I get back. The funny thing is that I didn’t realize this is an SCBWI conference as well…and that I am speaking on two panels about blogging and on an individual platform about using picture books as a parenting tool. I’ve just chosen the programs and presentations I want to go to. It was hard to chose…there are so many amazing ones. You can see the entire list available on their site: http://afcc.com.sg/_2013
