To Mother, Mama, Momma, Ma, Mom, M'Dear, Mommy
To mothers in two-parent families,
To single mothers serving as mother and father,
To adoptive and foster mothers who have opened their homes and hearts,
To stepmothers in blended families,
To grandmothers raising grandchildren,
To aunts who are raising nieces, nephews, cousins,
To mothers serving in the military,
To dads who are father and mother:
Thank you for all of the love, encouragement, discipline (yes!), the tissues, stories, lullabies, Easter bunnies, Santas, Thanksgiving meals that didn't magically appear on the table, laundry, special 'I love you' notes, the encouragement, tripes to the library, making an extra way, making a way out of no way, special outfits, special occasions, dropping us off, picking us up, extra lessons, checking the homework, recitals, school trips as class parent, asking "how was your day" and really listening, the watchful *eye* the kisses to make it better, did we say the love, the PRAYERS, and the love that you have generously showered upon us.
Everything that God has allowed us to be is because we have you by our sides.
This is your day, from the most senior to the newest mother.
We praise God for you, and we love you!
