I hope you are all doing something lovely for your own mothers today! And for those of you who are yourselves mothers, I hope you are feeling loved and appreciated today. I for one, am grateful for what you do to care for your little ones. Even if I do not know you, the love you give your child will make the world my child grows up in a better place, and for that I thank you.
In particular, I must issue a note of gratitude to my own mother for her decades of love and care for me and my baby sister. Even though we are no longer little, she cares for us just the same. For example, in a period of twelve months, she is going to have helped our family execute five moves [us, herself, both her parents and in-laws, and my sister - a big year of transition for our family!]. That's just ridiculous!
I found this picture of the three of us on the back porch of the house I grew up in and I can't stop looking at it because it makes me feel so happy. Mom, there's no way to properly thank you for giving me such beautiful memories. Thank you for bringing me into the world with such joy. I love you!
JUMPING! (What you lack in springiness you make up for in jazzy hands.) |
In case you've forgotten, these are our beautiful supermodel poses. |
You're welcome for this. |
Awww! Can't see this for the tears! A mom's worth is measured by the excellence of her children. I must be "freaky awesome"!
