It was one week ago today that my mom passed away after a 4 year battle with cancer. We are grateful that we had more time with her than we ever thought we would, and that she is no longer in pain. Mom knew where she was going and had made peace with that. The only thing she regretted was not being able to stay longer for us. I could fill a book, praising the virtues of this wonderful woman that call Mom, but I will keep it brief. Mom always had a smile and a kind word for everyone, and made an impact on everyone she encountered. She was a caregiver and an empath. She set the example of what it means to be a mother, and was the best grandma my boys could ever have had. Mom was an angel walking this earth, and I hit the jackpot, being born into my family, having her and my dad as my parents. She showed me so much love, so much care. So much of everything good. She was my first best friend in life.
Francine Adrignola Lawrence Cote. My mother. My mom. My friend. My guardian angel. My beautiful, beautiful mother. Beautiful inside and out.

📢Attn birders: Nesting season is far from over! Check out this article from 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐝𝐬 & 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦𝐬 magazine below, and pick up a nesting ball (or nesting star) at Replenish NH or on my Etsy:
🐣"Bird nesting happens in spring. That’s common knowledge, right? Actually, it’s not always the case. Even though we associate nesting birds with springtime, some birds do nest and lay eggs in other seasons. Even as fall approaches and the days start growing shorter, you may still spot baby birds hopping around in your yard.
🐣 When it comes to late nesters, American goldfinches top the list. They don’t begin until late June, July or even September in some cases. That’s because, unlike most other species, they don’t feed their babies insects, just seeds. 🐣 American robins, for example, have as many as three broods in a year, with each nesting cycle lasting about a month from egg laying to the fledging of the babies. This means they don’t finish their nesting activity until late summer. The same is true for cardinals, which sometimes have up to four broods and are still laying eggs in August. 🐣
Among the most impressive late nesters are mourning doves. They have multiple broods, as many as six in one year at southern latitudes, extending their nesting season well into the early fall."
