Mother's Day 1952
Even though I have to work on Mother's Day, I'm okay with it. At first I was feeling sorry for myself because I wouldn't be home to wallow in sorrow and self pity missing Mom this year. But I think it will actually be healing for me because I have the perfect Mother's Day job! Working in L&D I get to help women become Moms - how awesomely mother's-dayish is that!

I love you, Mom, and miss you every day! Thanks for being my mom - and loving me the most! (Don't worry, I'll never tell David, B, or Jon that I was your favorite!) 

Mom & I - 1989.

Thank you, Mom, for loving me and even though you really wanted to, thank you for not pushing me over that edge! You're the best!
Jeff has an amazing mom! I love her so VERY much! Happy Mother's Day, Gway!
I love my kids. I love being a Mom. Motherhood is difficult and excruciatingly painful and most of the time I have no clue what I'm doing, but being a mom is the most rewarding job I've ever had. Even though I've done my best to ruin them, my children are wonderful. I can't imagine life without them! I just recently came across a quote that pretty much sums up my crazy family... "Home is where you are loved the most and act the worst." by Marjorie Pay Hinckley.

If you're a mom, Happy Mother's Day! If you have a mom, tell her Happy Mother's Day and make sure she knows just how much you love her!!!
Happy Mother's Day !!!
Thanks for this great perspective on Mother's Day - such wise words! Love, love, love your opening sentence about time! Thanks for recognizing my Mom:) Missing your Mom too.
