Welcome to the Twitter Chats Blog Tour, organized by Mariana N. Blaser at mariblaser’s randomities and Anne Tyler Lord at Don’t Fence Me In, with writers from #litchat, #writechat and #fridayflash. You will be directed to your next stop at the end of this post. Please feel welcome here, and have a happy Mother’s Day!
- Because words can’t possibly reflect how privileged I am to know so many amazing Mothers– my own not the least of them — my post is the above video tribute. (My only regret is not having pictures of all of you.)
Thanks for stopping by!

How cool Kristi! Sometimes words are totally unnecessary, eh? 😉
I specially love the picture of two children “fighting” on mom’s lap, the dancing mom (so elengant!) and oh, how cute the Japanese mom with her daughter in bed! What a wonderful family you have!
Louis is fantastic, isn’t he? Hmm, I’ll ask Anne to invite him for the next party, heh. 😉
Yes, the dancing mother could represent so many of us, couldn’t it? I love all these photos for that reason…including the adorable one of the siblings fighting over mom!
And I’m thrilled you noticed the Mom in bed with her smiling daughter — because that’s my dear friend, Faith, who passed away last October very suddenly. She was such a wonderful mother, everyone always said that about her, either before or after they talked about her huge, welcoming smile.
Oh, I’m so sorry to hear that! She looks like a wonderful person as well, not only a great mother. I’m sure she’s smiling at your tribute, wherever she is. 🙂
*hugs*
Oh, wait. I realize now that not everyone is family in the video. Well, it certainly looks like it, heh. 🙂
Ah Kristi! That’s lovely!
Beautiful way to honor so many mothers that you know. Happy Mother’s Day!
Thanks so much, Laura!
Mariana: Yes, aren’t these special moments? I love knowing them but hope everyone can relate even if you don’t know these great women, all of whom I have the privilege of knowing. Most are not family members, though my mother, mother-in-law, sister-in-law and an aunt are of course very much included!!
Thanks, Sally, I just wanted to reach out to everyone!

What a wonderful video Kristi, and the music is just perfect! I too love the picture of the ones fighting for Mom’s lap. Just super work!
Happy Mother’s Day weekend!
Thank you, Deanna – I love that one, too, haven’t we’ve all been there?

That was a great video. Your skill at producing this is amazing – the transitions, the panning, and I love the music – great choice.
I’m sorry to hear about your friend, Faith. That must have been a shock to everyone – how sad.
This was a beautiful tribute to mothers. You are lucky to know so many.
Thanks for putting this together for the tour.
That was truly lovely!

pictures, 1000 words… you know the saying, and you pulled it off beautifully! Thanks for sharing the photos, and happy mother’s day! 🙂
Anne: Thank you – I’m just learning to use it, thank God they’ve made technology that someone like me can learn – now I’m an addict, I swear it’s this generation’s slide show!! Yes, and aren’t we all fortunate to know so many wonderful mothers and women in general?
Donna and techtigger: Thanks so much, and Have a great one!
Fabulous video! For some weird reason, I wasn’t able to comment on your blog the other day, but I THINK it’s letting me now. Anyway – happy Mother’s Day and beautiful job!
Oh, thanks for letting me know, I think someone else had that same problem. Maybe I was updating it at the time? Anyway, I appreciate your trying again. All the best!
Oh, sweet music and pictures. Thank you.
Thanks for stopping by!!
