 Yesterday was a day to honor Woman in Italy, the entire Month of March is women's month, but yesterday is marked as a special day.
They also celebrate Mother's Day. President B noted the month of March is also The Relief Societies Birthday.
 There is a flower that is reserved just for this month and day, they are yellow flower shown in the picture. They are small clusters of yellow puff balls  that grow on trees and have a light, fresh, fragrance. Every street corner had a car loaded down with packages of wrapped yellow bundles for sale. 
These are some of the Sorellas in the Branch. Several were camera shy.
We also had a first yesterday. We arrived at 8am to get the church ready for meetings at 9. We could not get the keys to turn the lock into the church, we waited for the Anzianos and Sorellas. The Relief Society President came at 8:30 her keys would not work. Sorellas came, theirs didn't work , Anzianos came, no luck!! It was looking like we would have to cancel, or move to another location.(???)
The new Elders Quorum President came at 9:15 and his keys opened the Door?? ( He was picking up a brother who has decided to return to church after years of no contact.)
Thanks to Christina I have a great picture of some of my favorite women. We honor you for the roles you play in all aspects of life: Sister , Friend, Wife, Mother, Daughter, Aunt, Neighbor, Co-worker, Student, Doctor/ Nurse, Chief Cook & Bottle Washer, Teacher, Chauffeur, Accountant, Designer, Decorator, Hey is there an end to this list???? Happy Woman's Month to all!
( By the way, we were married in the Manti Temple 41 years ago.)
