love words weekend: mothers day

 

"A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. 

It knows no law, no pity, it dates all things and

crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path."

Agatha Christie, "The Last Seance" via Real Simple

*note:  my first Mother's Day....today is a big deal!  These pictures are from Clara's first day at home.  Not a time of perfect hair or makeup or pretty clothes - though it was full of happiness and smiles.  It was a thrilling and terrifying and exhausting beautiful day.  I love being Clara's mother.
