Mother's Day, 2020

Last year the church presented yellow roses to all the ladies; this year there were no roses, much less a worship service, just pixels on a screen.

Last year I purchased an arrangement from a local florist. This year I placed a Costco bouquet in an old vase. For dinner we had take-out chicken sandwiches, not the same as last year's dinner in a nice restaurant.

Mom and caregiver
I called Mom. She was happy to have received a few visitors, despite the hassle of putting on a mask and having to go to the main entrance. Each one of her children sent her a card and thanked her for being their mother.

A lot less was spent on food, gifts, and travel this year, but I suspect many had a good Mother's Day anyway.
