A Mother's Love Never Fades - It Gets Stronger

Friday - September 3, 2010

63 years ago, there was a mother holding her first born in her arms and showering him with kisses. Today that mother gave her first born a kiss. My mother, who is 90 years old, went to visit her first born, Dink, a.k.a, William Allen Layne. She wanted to wish him a Happy Birthday - even if it was a day late! (She had minor surgery on her hand and was a little under the weather on her "baby's" birthday!!!

Whether you are a newborn, or in you 60's, your mother will always think of that first time she saw you. The love only gets stronger!!! Since Dink's stroke almost 18 months ago, she has become a little more protective of her first born. She wants him to always know how much she loves him. She loves her other children just as much, but we love to tease her and say she loves Dink more because he is the oldest. Bless his heart, Dink still has his sense of humor and says that it is true!!!

Dink did not want me to take a picture until I asked if he would allow me to take one with him and Mom together!!! He agreed and here are a couple of good shots!!!! One with his sneaky grin, and the other with Mom bending over him and giving him a kiss in the head!!! Precious moment - Precious memories!!!!!

Love you all!!!!!!!
