Happy Mother's Day! The three words that I take pride in hearing once a year. What do they mean? What does this day mean? Outside of all the gifts, pampering, and spoiling it is a day for mothers to be still and bask in their achievements of getting through another year without pulling our teeth out. Seriously though, I absolutely love my job, like most mothers do, but that doesn't me we don't face challenges. Every moment of everyday is not giggles and sunshine. I believe that it makes being a mom all the more rewarding because at the end of the day when our little humans are fast asleep and we stare at their little faces, we feel pure and blissful joy. We forget about the tears we might of shed, the patience we might have lost, or the to do list that we didn't get through and we bask. We bask in all that it meant to bring this person into the world and all that it means that we were chosen to lead and shape their lives. So on Mother's Day after all the much needed pampering and me time, we are still, and we bask; taking in what is truly an accomplishment, privledge and honor. The role of Motherhood is not an easy one, but it wouldn't be worth it if it was. So once again I say Happy Mothers Day to all the beautiful mothers in my life (you know who you are) and all the wonderful mamas out there, but a special Mother's Day to the two women for whom I literally would not exist.
To Grandma:
You have been by my side since day one and have been the strong glue that keeps our family from falling apart. Your faith is an inspiration to me and your love is unconditional. You may be miles away, but your wisdom spreads far beyond the seas. I love you more than words can say and I am proud to have you as a grandmother.
To Mommy:
We have been through thick and thin together and because of this I have a bond with you that is strong and deep. You mean the world to me and everyday I live to make you proud. You have the courage that I could only imagine to have and a drive that I admire each day. I cannot express in words the amount of love and appreciation I have for you. You are my inspiration and you are my hero.
Love you all!
Happy Mothers Day!
