Good morning,
Mother’s Day has always been a favorite day at Rancho Roble. We love to honor mom’s all types of moms-educators, caregivers, medical providers, CEOs of the house, grandmothers, and dog and cat mothers.
As we look back on the past mother’s days, we remember our first at Rancho when there was Pete and I and one employee and long lines. In all honesty, I will never forget that day as we had only owned Rancho for five months and had one employee Tanya, who just started working that week. Pete’s mom, Carol, visited on the second Mother’s Day and my mom Karen frequently visited Rancho. We washed dishes, ran around, and laughed to keep from crying.
More than five years later, so much has changed. Now, several part-time employees are here to help and make Rancho a special place to honor mothers.
-The days are long, but the years are short-
This year, I find myself missing my mother. It is the second Mother’s Day without her. I share this, as maybe you are missing a family member around this holiday and it can be not easy. I try to focus on all the great memories and then I also look at my two daughters who are wonderful mothers. I see what they are doing with their families and feel so proud.
So this weekend, let’s celebrate mom- at home with some bubbly, in the car singing, or out in nature where you can feel the wind and see the clouds that may remind you of those who have passed. Whether you are at Rancho this weekend, at brunch, or on the couch with your favorite show, join me as we toast mothers, families, and most of all – love.
Happy Mother’s Day,
Kari
