Happy Mother's Day

To all of you wonderful mommies, mommies to be, and honorary mommies out there:

THANK YOU for giving life, for being part of the biggest miracle, and for putting more love out into this world.

I wanted to wish a very happy day to my mommy, my grandmother, Sissy, and my best friends who are all mostly mommies (I am going to have lots of great mommy suggestions when Crush and I are hopefully blessed ourselves one day)!

I also wanted to give a huge virtual hug to all of the bloggy mommies I love across the Web.  I love reading about your children and they are lucky to have mommies like you.

TO MY OWN MOMMY:

Thank you mom for being the most incredible mom in the world.  You have loved me more than I could ever really thank you for.  You wanted me.  You supported me.  You never gave up on me.  You allowed me to pursue my dreams.  You nurtured me.  You taught me life lessons.  You encouraged laughter, ice cream, and being natural.  You always had an open door and open arms. You convinced me of my potential.  You also MADE me date again when you knew it was time (those motherly instincts...) and I met Crush!  YAY!  Even if we fight, even if I say things I don't mean sometimes, even if I don't show how much I appreciate you enough...please know how grateful and lucky I am to have a mom like you. I aspire to be a parent like you one day.  You have shown me the best love, so now I have the greatest love to share.

I hope tomorrow is full of laughter, lattes, flowers, cupcakes, and lots of hugs and kisses (my perfect Mother's Day shall one day include the above).....
