Happy Mother's Day

I'd like to wish all women a very happy Mother's Day today.

There are two women that I'd like to thank the most.

First, I'd like to thank my own mother for always believing in me, for always teaching me what is right, for always supporting me, and for always being that shoulder of strength for me. I don't know where I'd be without her, my best friend and the woman who has had the greatest influence on my life. I know whenever I'm in a major pickle, I can call on you for anything. I hope that you know how beloved you are.


And I'd like to thank my mother-in-law, Karolyn, for raising a wonderful son who became a wonderful husband and wonderful father to our babies. I am eternally grateful for your kindness, love and compassion. I hope that you know how deeply you are loved.


I'd also like to thank the other women who have influenced me and have helped mold me into the person I am today. I cannot possibly list all of you, but I do hope that you also know that you are loved.

Have a Happy Day!

Very nice words for people that are obviously very special to you. I hope you had a wonderful day. I was surprised to see your post along with 3 others, I kept posting and revising. I finally think I have it all corrected.

Have a wonderful mothers day!!

Thank you for your kind words. I am especially grateful for the nurturing mother you are to my precious grandchildren, the wonderful wife you are to my son, and the delightful daughter-in-law and friend you are to me. And I join in the kudos to your mother as well. She has raised an exceptional family and I am so very glad our lives are entwined through you and T. LYTM!
