Happy Mother's Day


To all mothers and daughters and sisters and nieces...

To all the women out there....past present and future. Enjoy this day made especially for you, as a woman.

I am so saddened today. I miss my mommy dearly. I just want to crawl under my covers and cry. But for my baby, I'll press on. That's what mommies do.

So, in honor of my mother, I encourage everyone to think of your own mothers with joy today. Whether she is sitting next to you tonight at the dinner table or hugging your heart in her next life...remember her with love. Tell her you love her and don't take her for granted.

And if you are not close with your mother or far from her as a person, then remember the special reasons why you are a wonderful mother. Remember the child or children that made you a mother and envelop them in your heart. I hug you all today.

Mothers give their lives, their souls, their hearts to their charges. They shape you into the person you are. They made sacrifices and made many mistakes but they love you endlessly.

Happy Mother's Day.
