I am quick to comment about how fortunate I am that at the age of 52, both my parents are still alive and well.
For those of you who do not know the story, you can read it here.
They are arriving later today for a three day visit with us and I will be setting aside blogging to spend time with them. 
I’ll be back on Tuesday.
In honor of their impending arrival, here is a tune by Blackfoot. It is probably one of the prettiest songs Ricky ever wrote.
From the 1976, “Flyin’ High” album….”Mother”
What a great song! I’ve never heard it before, but it is perfect for the occasion. Enjoy your time together! I’m so happy for you!
I think someone made a remake of this song recently, googled it but couldnt find. Will keep searching. As stated above / great song.
