To make a mother happy.....

all you need to do is gather her family and just BE.  There's nothing like having all of the family under one roof healthy and happy, especially when the kids are grown and have moved away.  The sounds of several conversations taking place at one time, one talking over the other, the laughing, the chaos, the kids walking around listening to everyone trying to join in...mom's love it all and are in complete heaven.  When asked what I want for Mother's Day or my birthday, Christmas, or any other day I can get away with it, I always give the same answer; I'd like all of my family home, together, for as long as possible.  There is no greater joy!
