It's not hard to look around the waiting room at Visitation Clinic and see the special bond between mothers and children. Invariably small children will be sitting or lying on their mother's lap. If the children are older, they might be sitting next to their mothers. But certainly not running around the clinic or getting into something that they shouldn't. All it usually takes is that special look from a mother to make a child sit more still and or wait more quietly to be seen by a doctor.
In Haiti Mother's Day will be the last Sunday in May and Haitians have a special way of honoring their mothers - wear a single flower all day. It will be red if their mother is still alive, and white if she has passed on. You can help us bring more red flowers to Haiti on Mother's Day. Just give your own mother, wife or daughter a special pack of flower seeds. Details are here.
Nice posting and great idea for a mother's day gift, Art and Fran. Some flowers seeds on the way to my wife.
