 re: MOTHER’S DAY 

When I, Renee Ashley Baker,  was a little girl my mother Mrs. Ashley  (pictured above) would make me FRENCH TOAST for breakfast. 

 When I was a girl growning up my mother had, in her mini mansion (in St. Louis ) various pets.   Such as:  a canary, a parakeet, gold fish in a large acquarium, and several dogs and puppies.  (In fact–during the mid-1960′s one of my mother’s pets  was a pure bred Beagle that looked just like the one President Lyndon Johnson had in the White House at the time. Unfortunately he– the  Beagle – met the fate of  President Clinton’s “Buddy”)…

For Mothers’  Day —  I am going to offer a contest.  A  free poster of ‘YOUR  MOTHER’ –from PosterBrain–to anyone who can name any one of my mother’s pets. (You can make your guess  before ,  on,  or  until the following week after,  Mother’s Day).

                              June Cleaver as “Mom” 

 Did you know?….That, women count for 40% of the work force?  That,  thousands of corporations, around the world,  now have “day care centers” on site?   That, some 70 corporations around the U.S. now have “Baby at Work” programs?  (Meaning, that mothers can actually take their babies to the office every day.  However–you should consider the following before taking ‘your’ baby to ‘your’ office.  Consider: the personality of your baby, the safety of your office and the cleanliness of your office….)
