God's Helpers
God could not be in every place
With loving hands to help erase
The teardrops from each baby's face,
And so He thought of mother.
He could not send us here alone
And leave us to a fate unknown;
Without providing for His own,
The outstretched arms of mother.
God could not watch us night and day
And kneel beside our crib to pray,
Or kiss our little aches away;
And so He sent us mother.
And when our childhood days began,
He simply could not take command.
That's why He placed our tiny hand
Securely into mother's.
The days of youth slipped quickly by,
Life's sun rose higher in the sky.
Full grown were we, yet ever nigh
To love us still, was mother.
And when life's span of years shall end,
I know that God will gladly send,
To welcome home her child again,
That ever-faithful mother.
--George W. Wiseman
Oh, my goodness! Is it May already?
I just remembered that I always wanted to do a May Day basket!
And I think, traditionally, it is supposed to be done on May 1st, isn't it?
And, here it is, May 1st!
I guess the tradition is to make a basket of flowers and surprise someone by hanging it on their door, fence post, tree branch, light post, mailbox, etc.
Now is my chance!
The day hasn't passed me by yet!
I am so excited!
Here is one site that I found that gives you an idea of how to make one.

It will be our homeschool project for the day!
If I'm on the ball, I will take a picture and post it on here, or facebook, or Pinterest.
But, I'm warning you right now, DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH!
Have a lovely May Day!
And May your Day be blessed!
