Each time I kiss one of Munchkin’s boo-boos or watch her eyes light up with the joy of discovery, I think of my mother.  As I rock my newest little one to sleep and see her first smiles, I think of her then too. With every milestone that brings unbridled pride and joy, I also feel a twinge of sadness. These moments must be cherished as time passes by all too quickly.

“With what price we pay for the glory of motherhood.”  ~Isadora Duncan

Becoming a mother has made me feel even closer to my mom, knowing she felt the same things as she watched my siblings and me become who we are. This mother’s love is a bond that we both will always share, no matter how far apart we are. Mom, I am so grateful for all you have done for me and continue to do. I love you so much!

And to all the moms and mother figures in our lives…

Thank You & Happy Mother’s Day!
