MOTHERSReal Mothers don't eat quiche;
They don't have time to make it.Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils
Are probably in the sandbox.Real Mothers often have sticky floors,
Filthy ovens and happy kids.Real Mothers know that dried play dough
Doesn't come out of carpets.Real Mothers don't want to know what
The vacuum just sucked up...Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?'
And get their answer when a little
Voice says, 'Because I love you best.'Real Mothers know that a child's growth
Is not measured b y height or years or grade...
It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother.....The Images of Mother4 YEARS OF AGE - My Mommy can do anything!8 YEARS OF AGE - My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!12 YEARS OF AGE - My Mother doesn’t know everything! 14 YEARS OF AGE - My Mother? She wouldn’t have a clue.
.
16 YEARS OF AGE - Mother? She's so five minutes ago.18 YEARS OF AGE - That old woman? She's way out of date!25 YEARS OF AGE - Well, she might know a little bit about it!35 YEARS OF AGE - Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.45 YEARS OF AGE - Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?65 YEARS OF AGE - Wish I could talk it over with Mom.The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair.The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart,
The place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she
Shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!Please send this to 5 Moms today.If you don't, nothing bad will happen,
But if you do, something good will:
You'll boost a Mother's spirits.

Many of us seem to operate on one speed—overdrive! And that habit has carried over to our food habits, too: Fifty-nine percent of women eat on the go, according to a study in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association. Those who eat while driving, working or otherwise occupied, tend to fill up more on fast food. While you can hit the insta-burger joint occasionally without gaining, those who indulge in fast food more than twice a week tend to be 10 pounds heavier than those who eat it sparingly, according to a study in The Lancet, which puts them at greater risk for diabetes.
The good news: As long as you place a smart order, it's possible to eat fast food without tacking on pounds. One stay-slim secret worth remembering? Beware the combo meal: The average side accounted for a third of these meals' 1,200 calories, a study in the journal Obesity indicates, so avoid the fries-with-that trap. As for the healthiest options on the menu board, you can't go wrong with the all-stars below. Speedy, nutritious meal? Coming right up!

Keller Williams Realty associates in Ann Arbor will take part in a national day of service May 13. More than 25,000 Keller Williams associates across the United States and Canada will spend the day giving back as part of the company’s community service initiative, RED Day, short for “Renew, Energize and Donate.”
Keller Williams Ann Arbor Market Center has chosen to spend the day with Washtenaw County's Food Gatherers, a nonprofit addressing hunger in Washtenaw County. Associates from the Keller Williams Ann Arbor office will be passing out bags to local neighborhoods the week of May 10 and will pick up the bags May 16. On May 13, associates at Keller Williams Realty Ann Arbor Market Center, 2144 S. State St. in Ann Arbor, will collect nonperishable foods during a hot dog cookout.
Anyone who brings a least two canned food goods will receive a hot dog.
