Impactful Real Estate News - May 2026

Mind Your Mom!

Just about every May, I sit down to write Homeward Bound; I write about Mom’s Day. And why not… It is a very special day for very special people.

My Mom used to tell me, seemingly repeatedly, to do this and do that, not to do this and not to do that.  ALL, I recall, very valuable advice. Looking back on it all these many years later, I can say she was, and still is, a very wise woman.

Time reveals, in fact, just about every caring Mother is a Wise Woman.  I can see why we carve out a special day each year to acknowledge Moms.  So here is a shout-out to all Mom’s – Happy Mother’s Day!!   

For ALL those whose Mom is no longer with us, may you remember the best about them. In addition to that, there are also many who never knew their Mom due to unfortunate circumstances. I bet someone played that role in their life and they too deserve a Happy Mother’s Day!

Regardless, we can celebrate this Mother’s Day knowing Moms both here and no longer here are special in more ways than we can count.  

Especially the Moms who are sitting right now by their Child’s hospital bed not too far from where I type this…

Your referrals help the kids…
