Happy 16th Birthday to Nick (Chris and John's grandson and Erin's son)
The last 2 posts received some great family comments!
Grandma Aggie was so inspirational and the epitome of love for all of us!
Dan found this in his box of family treasures. It was written in Grandma Aggie's own handwriting:
When you come to the Red SeaChris Beckwith received nice comments on his 32 years of sobriety from Monita, Marcia and Molly!
Place in life,
And in spite of whatever you do
There is no way out, there is no way back,
There is no other way but through.
Cindy and Cheryl loved the tribute for their Mom, Michelle... as did Molly!
Molly was wondering who Michelle was with in the "Stalker Picture"!
Way back in the day... (70's - 80's) Bob Barker was the Host of "The Price is Right" daytime television show. Michelle and Cheryl were both selected as contestants on that show in separate appearances. Cheryl won a car... (that she named Bob); Michelle won a few dates with Bob! :)
Marcia shared this about her Mom, Monita:
I am not the writer in our family, but I will honor my mom as she deserves! I don’t know how the Marty Murphy family would have survived without our beautiful, thoughtful, conscience, tenacious, loving, hardworking mother. I certainly don’t know what I would have done without her. She is always there whenever I have needed her. Mom never steps in our business until she is asked, but boy when you do ask, she goes for it! She is an amazing mom, nana and friend. There is a reason the family knows her as Saint Monita. Happy Mother's Day mom! I love you, Marcia

I am so grateful for our family, and the love we share for one another! Thinking of all us Moms in this difficult time; as well as remembering those we miss, but are in our hearts forever!
Stay safe...Onward!
{Be back on Tuesday, the 12th}
LYM,
Reenie
Michelle asked if we could upload this photo of Mom to go along with her comment! (see below)
As Dan said on the "Easter Girl" post... Mom always got the final parting shot! Cute picture of her... thanks, Michelle!
Love You More!
Happy Mother’s Day mom! 🌹You were the very best there ever was! 🌹
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother’s Day to all the Mom’s in our family! And mothers everywhere!

ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day! I am so thankful for the women in my life that have helped raise me into the person I am today. I owe a lot to my Mom, Nana, Grandma (Rest in Love Shirley Zive), Titi, TC, all my Aunties, and looking forward to the day to use all the kindness, patience and warmth I received (and still do) on children of my own.
ReplyDeleteI also love the idea of honoring the energy or holding a quality of being that means mothering - not limited or bound to the idea of whether one births a child or not. As a nanny, I get to experience a variety of emotions/growth and feel so honored to be able to witness trials and triumphs. Thank you Reenie and Dan for giving us an opportunity to share our thoughts and feelings!
Thank you for the update on the stalker picture of Michelle! Funny enough yesterday was the anniversary of when I went to the show in 2013...a memory came up in social media from it. Synchronicity in the posts! I wasn't selected as a contestant and Drew Carey was the host. Their stories seem a lot more interesting!
ReplyDeleteLove the photos!
ReplyDeleteI want to honor the love and energy around we have for our mothers, nanas, moms, etc. It takes a village, a tribe. Thank you for being part of my family, village, and tribe. ONWARD!
