My mother said always be kind to people because you never know what they have been through. If you hold open a door, or pick up something or give them a smile, it may be the nicest thing that happened to the that day. I always think of that and try to be like my mom. She said it doesn't matter much to you, but it could mean everything to them.

My Italian mother loved to bake after she was retired. She made the best cream filled cream puffs, all made from scratch, they were amazing She also made Easter Bread with colored eggs braided into the dough. So happy I have pictures of her with those beautiful breads.

My Mother was the Kindest, Sweetest, Friendly Soul. She loved us and we knew. I miss her.

One of my memories...." If money can fix it don't worry".

My mom and grandmother “mom mom” were the best. They died over 30 years ago but their memories make everything special

As my mother warned me many times, "Don't make love by the garden gate cause love is blind but the neighbors' aint." This is true no matter your age!

MY MOMMA, SHES DIFFERENT .. SHE TAKES CARE OF LITERALLY EVERYONE BEFORE HER OWN SELF. VERY SELFLESS SHE IS. GROWING UP MY MOM WAS A SINGLE WORKING MOM, BROUGHT US TO WORK WITH HER, ALWAYS MADE SURE MY SISTER AND I NEVER WENT WITHOUT. IF I COULD THINK OF ANYONE WHO DESERVED SOMETHING SWEET LIKE THIS , IT WOULD ALWAYS BE HER.
