5/9

Happy Mother’s Day to all furry and non-furry Mother’s. Being a mom isn’t always easy. It doesn’t come with a manual. Pretty much us mom’s make stuff up as we go. Appreciate your mom’s, appreciate you kids, appreciate your furry little creatures. Think of those that lost their mom’s or children.

Heavily on my mind today is the mother aching over the loss of her child so I could spend more time with mine. It’s a gift so priceless that I can’t even begin to explain it. My kids are a pain in the ass sometimes, but man, do I ever love the crap out of them. My heart is full on this day.

As I enjoyed being around my favorite people, I did hold close the kids still in ICU, sick, with their parents wondering, “are they going to make it?”.  What about the nurses, many of them moms themselves, spending the day away from their own kids to take care of someone else’s kids.

I am thankful for all I have. I feel richer than royalty with the supportive and loving family we have. Happy Mother’s Day to everyone.
