inspired

I know some very special moms. I know some moms who work long hours. I know some moms who cook for their families 7 days a week. I know some moms who are the bread-winners. I know some moms who help their husbands fight battles beyond their control, more than once. I know some moms that endure major life changes. I know some moms that make long commutes everyday. I know some moms who have to fight for the rights of their children. I know some moms who have put their careers on hold for the benefit of their children. I know some moms who don't remember the last time they had an uninterrupted night of sleep. I know some moms who live paycheck to paycheck. I know some moms that don't have their moms anymore. I am hoping that today treats all of these moms very well. They deserve it.

This picture was taken on the stairs of my growing-up house in Mission Viejo. Me, Mom, & Lisa circa 1979.

Oh, and I am very inspired by this post. Today, take time to have your picture taken with your children. Remember that they love you just the way you are.

Happy Mother's Day to my mom.

I love you.
