Celebrating My Mom<\/h3>\n

One of the things that stands out about my mom is the way she always encouraged me to be \u201cMyself\u201d.
\nI was a shy child. I was quiet and sometimes got tease by the other children. My mom always tired to explain perhaps why they did and pressed me to just be myself.
\nWhen I decided to follow my talents and become an artist and go to art school, she was right there behind me.
\nWhen I got nervous about mid-terms or finals she always had some no nonsense words of encouragement.
\nAnd she was proud when I started my art biz part-time.
\nI started with cards and postcards and attended craft fairs. A few years later I met my hubby and married. I added t-shirts to my inventory and got some businesses to buy them. I continue on with my small business today.
\nIn 2002, I became a \u201cMom\u201d. I have two beautiful girls.
\nI plan to pass on what she has taught me about being \u201cWho I Am\u201d to them.<\/p>\n

\u201cCheers\u201d Mom<\/p>\n

Parting is such sweet sorrow<\/h3>\n

My husband\u2019s step-Mom passed away recently. Her memorial service was this past Sunday.
\nNancy Dubie-Guarino was a Mom, Grandma and a great business woman.
\nI met her the first time at her annual Christmas eve party in 1993.
\nShe was a woman filled with a huge heart and open arms.
\nHer energy could light up any room.
\nShe was there to encourage us and help us when needed.
\nShe had a great business mind.
\nShe had a great sense of humor.
\nAnd she always had a Hug for someone.<\/p>\n

Share a hug with someone today.<\/p>\n

\n“Mare and Foal”<\/a>
\nPen and Ink<\/p>\n

I loved to be around the barn and horses. I used to take riding lessons at a barn in Berkley MA. They had a breeding stallion. It was exciting when foal season came around. Everyone anticipated the arrival of the new foals. One dear horse I rode, “Missy”, had a couple of foals during the years I rode there. I had found Missy to be a great horse and also a good horsey friend. I saw and got to visit her and her baby. She let me visit and pet her and her baby. She seemed to trust I wouldn’t hurt her or her baby. I got a number of pictures of her with her baby out in the carrol. It was wonderful watching them run and play and just relax.<\/p>\n

“Mare and Foal” are avaiable in cards and tile coasters.<\/p>\n
