Welcome all,
So far May Day, Cinco de Mayo and no Mother's Day this coming Sunday. Time just flies doesn't it? What are you doing to celebrate Mother's Day? Moms are such an integral part of our families are they? My mom is no longer with us physically but she sure is in my spirit and my daily life. My mom was a special person who emanated love, sunshine, family togetherness, patience, understanding, and so much more. Her guiding light is in all that I do from the way I am with my family, my efforts at bringing peace into situations, laughter, the way she folded towels, made a bed, found joy in knitting, made her special meals and desserts, etc. Isn't it wonderful that we have so much to carry with us in our own lives long after they are gone? For those of you who still have a mom or grandma in your life enjoy the moments and savor the time you have together.
"Joy is fortified in the moments you hold close, cherish, celebrate,
and carry with you in your heart throughout your lifetime."

Calendar update for Macaroni Kid - White Bear Lake, Shoreview, Roseville
I have been adding virtual and in person local events to our calendar as in person events start to open back up. I struggle with the fact that we are a source for events but yet to be safe, large group events are unsafe for the [andemic at this time. I will continue to add both virtual and in-perons events as they safely open back up but please know that it is solely up to you as a family obviously to make the decision on whether you feel safe for your family to attend. The changes we are experiencing at this time seems to evolve by the day. I am not the source to learn about those changes due to COVID-19 but I do want to say that I am doing my best to bring to you events and activities that are occurring as we all navigate through the uncertainty of this world we live in at this time. With spring there is hope. Let's hope that we all move in a better direction.
I will be sharing resources on our Facebook Page too so be sure to check it out.
Love your family, take care of you. Stay healthy, safe, and happy and have a joyful week. Happy Mother's Day to the wonderful moms, grandmas, and mother figures in our lives.
