Happy Mother's Day

It's May so that means it is Mother's Day. A day that is not just any day, but a day we get to show our love and appreciation for the women who shpaed our life in a very special way. Mothers are very special women, they give us life, for the beginning they hold us close to their heart, they share their bodies with us. They help us grow up; they are there for scraped knees, scratches, when we are sick and when we are scared. They get us through our teen years, which can be very trying for them. Sometimes its hard for them, but they let us go with the hope that the values they have instilled in us, we will use in our future. Some moms are fortunate enough to see their children marry and eventually become Grandmothers. I love my Mom very much, but she wasn't as lucky; she had to leave early because it was her time to go. The memories I had with my Mom will live forever inside me. I was not luck enough to give both to my own children, but I am blessed with children in my life who I love very much. So to all of the special Moms in my life: My wish to you is simple. Happy Mother's Day today and everyday.
