This is the Day

that the Lord has made...
I will rejoice and be glad in it.

This is the day...
we move our mom to her apartment in the assisted living place....
we will rejoice and be glad in it.

this is the day of change...
big, small, difficult and pleasing, full of surprises....
we will rejoice and be glad in it.

this is the day of flexibility...
for the unwritten beatitude says blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape
but instead...
we will rejoice and be glad in it.

this is the day of patience...
and extra measures of grace, on all sides, of speaking softly, firmly, with love and respect...
we will rejoice and be glad in it.

this is the day of celebration...
for it is our Lord's command that we give thanks in ALL things
so let us be thankful... and rejoice... and be glad!



Happy Mother's Day to all the mama's out there... and grandma's, honorary moms, aunties, step-moms, foster moms and the dads who have to step into the mama's shoes....
