Happy Mother's Day!

M....is the million things she gave/gives me
O.....means that she's growing old
T...is the for the tears she shed to save me
H...is for her heart of purest Gold
E...is for her eyes, with love-light shining
R...means right and right she will always be
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER"
A word that means the world to me....

National flower-Finland

"It is not growing like a tree
in bulk doth make man better be;
Or standing long an oak, three hundred year,
To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere,
A lily of a day
is fairer in May
Although it fall and die that night,
It was the plant of flower and light,
In small proportions we just beauties see;
And in short measures, life may perfect be."
-Benjamin Johnson
