Happy Mother's Day


For all the Moms out there who:
  • Cheer their kids from the sidelines in sun, rain, snow and wind
  • Kiss boo-boos big and small
  • Champion their kids when others would walk away
  • Stay up waiting for kids who are past curfew
  • Sleep squashed in their bed during thunderstorms
  • Spend the night in chairs, rockers and bedsides with sick ones
  • Spend countless hours sorting, washing, folding and putting away laundry
  • Cook and clean-up from hundreds of meals
  • Run forgotten homework and lunches down to school
  • Shed tears of joy and pain with and for their kids
  • Fist-pump silently for their child when struggles are overcome
  • Hug, because you can't do anything else
  • Continue on with the seeminly thankless, never-ending mothering duties because it's those unexpected hugs and a "love you" that make it worth doing all over.
Your work is the most important in the world.  Have a love-filled day!

Happy Mother's Day
