Mother’s Day

I always find it tough on Mother’s Day to really express that overwhelming love and gratitude I have for mom.  She’s committed, cared, supported, and loved me as we continue to journey through life.  I just love this woman to pieces, which I’m sure most can relate to that feeling as well.  I get a little crazy this time of year, because I want it to be perfect.  You should see me trying to pick out a Mother’s Day card.  I’m the lady who stands there for an hour and won’t let you get to the cards; it might be “THE ONE!”  I even go to more than one card shop before I decide!  It’s a sickness, I’m sure!  So this year, I’m creating my own card.  I’m going with the angle of, what have I given to mom?  A different approach, I want reflect back to her what we share, that seems to be the glue to our love.  I understand more now, as a mother of three beautiful children, what that commitment and love is really about.  So, I won’t be at the card aisle harassing you to stay out of my way.  I hoping that my card is priceless. Who knows,  maybe we just started a tradition.  Honor your mom this Mother’s Day, she's earned it.  (I love you mom!)
