happy mother's day!!

I am very rich.

Very rich indeed.
I have some very wonderful women in my life.
They make my life very rich.

All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother
~~ Abraham Lincoln

I learned how to be a mother... from my mom
I remember my mom making me sandwiches fashioned into boats
I remember my mom driving me 20 minutes to the mall....
because I HAD to have a Hello Kitty pencil
I remember my mom being so patient & loving with me
and strived to enrich my life with the things around me
who played the accordian while my brother & I marched
with pots & pans as if we were the band
I remember my mom taking me shopping for a special outfit... just because

she truly is the best!!

Top 10 reasons why I love my mom:
1) she's super cool... just ask all my friends growing up
(they all wanted to hang around her!)
2) She makes good food
3) she loves to play games
4) She can be so gullible it's funny
5) She plays with my kids... more than I do
6) When I was horribly sick years ago, she came to my house after work and made dinner, put me to bed and took care of Katie until Mike got home
7) She instilled the love of reading in me
8) She's a ton of fun to be around
9) She's incredibly thoughtful of others
10) She's very supportive in all I do ...

Love you Mom!!

Happy Mother's Day!
