Not an Ordinary Mother’s Day
I spent the evening twilight hours on Mother’s Day sitting on our dock in 45mph winds, chilled to the bone, keeping my photographer son Ron company during a photo shoot. It was absolutely fun watching him shoot professional photos of the resident muskrat. He is really blessed, while he was photographing the muskrat a Common Loon made a rare appearance and swam within 10′ of the dock! Nothing pleases me more as a mom than to share my life with my children, and to be included in their lives. Ron’s wife, Janine, and my husband, Bob, stayed warm inside our house watching us with the spotting scope and chatted with us via walkie talkie. They are the “support crew” for both of us and treasured, neither of us could excel in our chosen professions without their help.
More tomorrow,

Thanks Ron, and thank you and Janine for driving up for the visit. It means a lot to me.
