Mothers Day is fast approaching. We had our annual mother daughter banquet last evening.
It was held in a gorgeous hall with sparkling chandeliers and beautiful music played during the
meal from some wonderful ladies from our church.

Each table was set beautifully with white china; starched white tablecloths; and scrumptious food! Even though that was very special my friend had each person she had invited to her table made to feel even more loved. She had made a treasured card for each person of something that they felt to them personally told them that God loved them.
Mine was a Blue Heron and she had a small picture of a Heron and my favorite color laminated on my card. She had bought a special cake for a young girl that sat at our table because she knew it was her birthday that day.
She had extra butter and bread brought to us to keep us full and she had us laughing and having a good time all evening.

The dinner was wonderful but then 2 awards were given out. One for being a servant in a special way called the Dorcus Award. The other was the Mother of the Year. The latter award brought the mother and her family to say a few words. It was very touching indeed and well deserved!

The latter part of the evening brought a play put on by our college called "Love Letters Home". Oh my.........the music; costumes from the Civil War; singing and the teaching behind it was incredible. All in all it was a sweet evening .
