Welcome Rest Day

Rest Day in Des Moines, IA

Happy Mother’s Day!

Today: leisurely walks,
Admiring blooming Redbud
Here in Des Moines, Iowa.

A nap—
Always a treat.

My favorite of the day:
(Before internet went down,)
Watching my daughter on Zoom,
Competing in Toastmasters
International Speech Contest.

She won her at her District level.
Imagine my daughter,
Loving to speak, sing, and dance.
Can’t imagine where she got it!
So proud.

Tomorrow,
Back on the seat of my bike.
Lucky me.

Hugs,
Lin

Limerick:

In Heaven if I had my druthers,
Everyday we’d celebrate mothers.
Next I’d pick a day,
In March, June, or May,
To celebrate sisters and brothers.
