128::365 Happy Mother’s Day, photo by the little red hen

“A startled or surprised look from one of you when I spoke sharply rebuked me more than any words could have done, and the love, respect, and confidence of my children was the sweetest reward I could receive for my efforts to be the woman I would have them copy.”
~Little Women, Louisa May Alcott, 1868

Lynn posted this quotation with her photo a few years back. A great sentiment, and a very happy Mother’s Day to all you Michigan moms.
