Beautiful picture of your parents LC.

Now I want to go over to my moms and look at my parents wedding album and all the old family pics.

It would more than make my moms day if I went to church with her on Sunday, so that's what I'm going to do. Then we'll take her out to eat and go to the zoo. She loves the zoo, and all the great-grandkids will be going too.

F2 that's so sweet. you'll always be glad you did.

my beautiful Mom died of esophageal cancer, she suffered so much i could not bear it.

i'd give anything to take her out for dinner.

I pray to God my Mom doesn't end up with something horrible where she has to suffer...I'm sorry you had to go through that LC. I went through that with my Dad.

I cherish my time with my Mom.

Just ask mom — it’s the little things that count.

That’s especially true for moms living in poverty, say staffers at local women’s shelters. Small touches can make them help feel special, especially on Mother’s Day.

“It’s a really big day for us. You can only imagine, it’s not the easiest of days for the women,” said Cassie Walsh, development and communications coordinator at Women’s Lunch Place.

The Newbury Street-based nonprofit helps poor and homeless women get back on their feet. They expect 200 hundred women to attend their annual Mother’s Day brunch tomorrow.

“Mother’s Day in general should just be a happy holiday. It should bring out the laughter and smiles in everybody,” Walsh said. “Given the struggles these women go through each day, we want to make that the focus. We’re their family. It’s just something to (help them) forget about all the worries.”

Rosie’s Place treats women in their care to a day of beauty on Monday, and has called in a makeup artist and masseuse.

“It helps them feel special inside and out,” said Leemarie Mosca, director of development at Rosie’s Place. “I think when you are a poor or homeless woman you often don’t have an opportunity to feel beautiful.”

Tara Dendy, director of adult programming at Elizabeth Stone House in Jamaica Plain, said “Being a mom is an additional job. These women go out to school or work and they come home to a second job. They don’t have time off. It’s just nice to recognize and celebrate that,” Dendy said.

The shelter plans to give their 17 moms gift bags of pampering products and treat them to a special dinner.

Dorchester-based shelter Project Hope celebrated Mother’s Day early, with a special dinner and family portrait session Thursday evening.

“The whole idea is for them to take a few moments to focus on themselves and relate to each other as moms,” said Elizabeth Maglio, director of developmental and external affairs.

This year, 11 mothers in the shelter’s care were treated to a meal and a gift, bracelets with their children’s names on them.

“One of the main features of the evening is that they all dress up,” Maglio said. “We have a makeup artist, and we do family pictures. When people lose their homes, they lose most of their possessions. This gives them a sense of history. We can pamper them for an evening and support them as they get back to work on being self-sufficient.”

My Mother struggled just about everyday of her life.

I feel bad as well as proud.

in 1917 my grandma had 4 sons and was alone. the old man was in Italy. they actually slept in a chicken coop at one point.

every one of those boys had a masters degree, were rocket scientists at NASA and brilliant. my Dad was a top scientist for the US Govt. and internationally known.

a mom can move worlds.

My Mother had all of her kids at my grandma's house except me and my younger brother, she was tough as nails.

She held her own while my Dad was deployed to the war and she didn't ever complain about any of it that I'm aware of.

[Lady Cop]

was that the Revolutionary War Dick?

but you mentioned my fat ass.

LC, your mom was STUNNING and your dad handsome too. Your mom was ahead of her time beautiful. She looks kind of "buff" when buff wasn't necessarily in.

thankyou...so sweet and kind.

when my Mom was dating my Dad she had a pic of him in her wallet. her girlfriends all thought she was lying, that it was really Tyrone Power, the hearthrob of the times.
