Happy Mother's Day, Moms and Grandmoms!

A partially deaf boy came home from school one day carrying a note from school officials. The note suggested that the parents take the boy out of school, claiming that he was "too stupid to learn." The boy's mother read the note and said, "My son Tom isn't 'too stupid to learn.' "I'll teach him myself." And she did.

When Tom died many years later, Americans paid tribute to him by turning off the nation's lights for one full minute. You see, Tom invented the light bulb - not only that - he also invented motion pictures and the record player. In all, Thomas Edison had more than 1000 patents to his credit.

My mother was the making of me. Thomas A. Edison (1847-1931)

I hope that whatever phase of life you are in today that you will take a moment to reflect upon the blessing of being a mom.

Have a great day,
Robin
