What do you love most about May? I asked this in the lobby, and crazyprincess said "Mother's Day." And I have to agree that it is so important to honor our mothers.  However, my favorite thing about May are the colors. I wish you could see my yard. There is a field in front that is covered in red Indian paintbrushes. My porch has ferns, and bouquets of flowers in hanging baskets. The rose bushes that surround the house are in bloom with colors of pink, yellow, and white. And my favorite of all is the pink butterfly roses. I remember the year my hubby pruned them all the way to the ground.  I just wanted to cry.  But, they came back better than before.  I also have a pink orchid that blooms each year around this time.  Who doesn't love a pink orchid?  Regardless of what your favorite thing is about May, I hope it is the best one ever. And, on behalf of DejaVu staff, we wish all our mommy members, Happy Mother's Day!
