Ms.Ernestine (aka Lily) You’re the top! You’re the Coliseum. You’re the top! You’re the Louve Museum. You’re a melody from a symphony by Strauss You’re a Bendel bonnet, A Shakespeare’s sonnet, You’re Mickey Mouse. You’re the Nile, You’re the Tower of Pisa, You’re the smile on the Mona Lisa…

Just had to write and tell you thank you all for sharing your mothers day greetings and your priceless pictures with your mom’s. I am enjoying the site more this week than ever. Lily, the video was “priceless”. Thanks for taking the time to make me smile. Happy mothers day to you all

Oh, my goodness, the lovely lily: Who are you? Are you a Canadian? I’m a Canadian too. Then there’s a pair of us — don’t tell! They’ll banish us, you know. “How dreary to be somebody! How public, like a frog To tell your name the livelong day To an admiring bog!” Ri-vette…. Ri-vette…. Ri-vette…..

Thank you so much, Lily, Ernestine is a sweetie pie. And she is so right about Moms, especially my Mom. Mother’s Day is a day about appreciating generosity, and Lily, I really enjoy and appreciate yours!

Dear Ms. Tomlin, You are wonderful! You made me laugh outloud. I shared your hilarious “shopping for a Mother’s Day card” with so many Moms. I loved how Ernistine walked into the drug store - fantastic! So good. Thank you! Oh- my step daughter is expecting her first baby next October and your generous video was the first Mother’s Day card she has ever received - as a soon to be Mommy. You are the a charm of a person. By the way your role in “The Kid” - no one could have done it as well as you.

No, you’re not the only woman on this site from Ireland.But we can always use more of you Dublin Darlins. Lily and I want to come  to Dublin sometime. Are there any forclosures on great castles over there or have the Rockers bought them all up?

Hope things are looking up for you. It’s been tough for so many but things are beginning to turn up. Love 

and may ye die and go to heaven,before the deevil knows your dead. Jane
