Every year it seems that the month of May cannot arrive soon enough. For those of us with children, May marks a huge milestone. Our kids are getting out of school making plans for the summer and best of all, Mother’s Day arrives. As a mother, this is absolutely one of my favorite days of the year. I still have the necklaces made of macaroni, the pot holders with tiny hand prints and the various objets d’ art my babies have made and presented very proudly to me on Mother’s Days through the years. Now that they have gotten older, and I actually receive “store bought” gifts – as my Mawmaw would say – I miss the not-so-perfect clay animals and the somewhat lopsided pottery made by little hands. Truly, these are a mother’s treasures – so very special.

Special absolutely describes the newest medical Institute to arrive in Fort Bend: Memorial Hermann’s IRONMAN Sports Medicine Institute. These highly-skilled physicians are experts in sports medicine, and as a mother of athletes, I am thrilled to have this level of specialized care – and rehabilitation – right in our neighborhood.
There’s so much going on this month – right in our neighborhood. From Cinco de Mayo celebrations to Richmond’s Music Festival, check out our pages when making your plans this month. You’ll find something for everyone – right in our neighborhood – including some special ideas.
Best-selling American author, educational reformer and mother Dorothy Canfield Fisher was a pioneer in shaping adult and children’s education in the early decades of the twentieth century. She said, “A mother is not a person to lean on but a person to make leaning unnecessary.” I believe Fisher summed up the most important job of being a mother with these words. Of course, I don’t mind a little leaning on one special day of the year!
Happy Mother’s Day to all of our Brazos moms!
Absolutely! yours,
