You were really close to your mother to have remembered all these, and I guess more about her. Thanks for letting us into your life as I pray your children will equally have fun memories of you. Lol!

Sally,
You tickled my funny bone--in a warm way. What a wonderful mother you had!
Your poem is humorous and light, with a lot of gravity between the lines.
Excellent, humorous tribute to your special mom.
Good luck in the contest!
Blessings,
Cindy

Beautiful words in tribute to your mother Sally. She would be very proud of you and happy that you remember so much about her. A loving list of knowledgeable words from and about your mother. Each point saw a chapter of your life unfold. A most enjoyable and well written read. Thank you for sharing. ~DD

A very sweet tribute to your Mama. She sounds like a very wise lady. I think about my mom everyday too. Mama's are always there no matter how long they have been gone. Mine will have been gone 21yrs in July. Hard to believe. She would be 93 in Aug, she died too young. Really well done. Your mom had lots of wisdom. =]

    Thank you, dear Rox. I'm sorry for your loss as well. A mother's love is keenly missed. They both had August birthdays, so do I. Sending you my best today as always,

    My Bday is Aug too! Out of the 7 in my fam, 5 of us had Aug bdays. My sis Connie is the only child not born in Aug and my one bro and I were born on the same day! When we got older we had one party. It was so much eaiser. We also had a close friend we concidered a brother who celebrated with us. He and my oldest bro had bdays the same day. It was some party. =]

This is a delightful epitaph to an incredibly talented woman in her use of sarcasm. Wish I'd known her. You did a wonderful job. I'm sure she would have loved it.

Hello Sal.

This is a wonderful tribute to your mother. The list of "June on..." is done quite well and gives a clear picture into her personality and beliefs. It shows her common sense thinking and response to the things around her.

We learn a lot from our mothers, Sally, or in my case from my grandmother and my dad. :) I wish I had more time with my mom, but life is what it is. Yet, when I wish to see her I shave my lip and smile (which I don't often) I see her smiling back at me. Your mom June seems to have been a loving mother. She had you, didn't she? Thank you for sharing. :)
