Most of all the other beatiful things in ife
come in twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds.
Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows,
brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles,
but only one Mother in the whole world.
Kate Douglas Wiggin
May 10th is "Mother's Day" here in Australia. It's the day when our thoughts are for, and about, our Mothers.
You may have, or be a Mother, then there are Grandmothers, Mothers-in-law, Step-mothers, adopted Mothers and Grandmothers. There are Foster Mothers. Then there are women who could have been Mothers.
Each and every mother is a special person and woman.
Rainy Day Books window display this year has a quiet and dignified look about it, highlighting some light reading that will make Mum's day enjoyable and interesting.
Visit Rainy Day Books and choose something that you know Mum will like. Perhaps a certain author; perhaps a beautiful "coffee table book" of photographs of a country where she was born or has travelled; a novel; an autobiography; a book of poems; a classic.
There's always something out of the ordinary that you'll find on the bookshelves of Rainy Day Books. Make a visit during this coming week.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
