Every now and then . . . even when it is a really cold evening, your mom will bundle you up and take you for a ride on the very cool Merry-Go-Round to make you happy. I took this photo in the small town of Ravenna in Italy. And I love this image with all the moms and their kids, because it is an example of one of the many, many things that make our moms the very special people that they are!
Much love to my own mom who I have to thank for all of the things that she did to make me feel loved and happy.
I want to wish everyone a very Happy Mother's Day!
