Dear Editor, A butterfly is a symbol of how delicate the heart of a mother is. Although it can be easily swayed by the wind, it is strong in flight to withstand wherever the wind may take her. She is busy doing for the good of her family, collecting all they would need to survive. It is in the struggles of life that her true colors adorn her. Her struggles make her stronger and more determined to succeed in all she puts her mind to. Silently sitting near her children, ever so watchful, that nothing will harm them. It is…

Dear Editor, I realize that this is not a time to be bringing up politics and the 2020 elections, however, it seems to me that there is some very fancy footwork going on in our nation’s capitol.

Dear Editor, As the Covid-19 pandemic and social distancing continues, I’m amazed how everything is blamed on our president.

Dear Editor, I wish mom were still here so I could take her out to Sunday dinner. The problem with Sunday dinner this Mother’s Day is that most of the restaurants either won’t be open yet or operating under new guidelines. Restaurants make their biggest payday of the year typically on Mother’s Day. Even in states that are wide open for dining there is the problem of social distancing.
