Happy Mothers’ Day to the wonderful moms in my life!
Thank you to..
My own mom, for saying exactly the right thing at exactly the right time for the last 30 years, even if it is occasionally preceded by “I told you…” Her energy, support and encouragement—especially since I became a mother myself—are invaluable. If my daughters grow to value my opinion and respect half as much as Katie and I value hers, I’ll be very fortunate.
My mother-in-law, the best I could have asked for, for her love, humor and advice
My grandma, who—tireless in her efforts to care for us—constantly reminds me, either by words or by actions, there’s nothing more important than family.
My sister-in-law Debbie, for providing two of the most adorable nephews in the world.
My step-mother Rose, not only for keeping Dad in check, but also for welcoming us into her family.
My friends Melissa, Lori and Alisa, who have endured—and even answered—countless questions over the past four years, for helping shape me into the mom I am today.
My friends Lanis and Dawn, for laughing at stories about my kids, and for letting me share them in the first place.
Enjoy your day!
