Amaryllis



A beautiful flower growing in my Sweet Old Mama's yard. A note about my mother: I grew up calling my mother, Ma. A few years ago my brother gave her a Mother's Day card and addressed it Mom, and when she opened it he said, "You will forever be known as Mom from now on." That pissed me off, and I've been fighting it ever since!! LOL

I think Sweet Old Mama sounds pretty cool though ... I think I'll run that by her on Mother's Day!

Or perhaps Sweet old Ma :)
I call mine just Ma too, and I think my bro does the same. I bever thought about that.

I think Sweet Old Mama has a very green thumb!
These are beautiful! They look so delicate. Your photo has captured it well.
Ma is much more endearing than Mom - brother dear needs to lighten up....
Give your Ma an extra hug on Mother's Day for me! :)
