Isn’t she beautiful? I have been lucky enough to call the lady in the middle (Patty) my momma for the past 27 years. My sister (Tommie, on the right) and I have an amazing relationship with our mom. My mom knows when we need a mom or need our best friend. She gives until she can’t give anymore, loves with all she has, listens when we talk, talks when we need to listen, and gives the most amazing hugs and kisses. I can’t go a day without talking to her, even if it is just to say we love each other, I have to hear her voice. My mother’s love for her daughters and her two sons (by marriage) made me want to be a mom. For four years I hated this day…it was a day that reminded me of something I wanted, something I longed for. I wanted to celebrate being a mom to have somebody need to see me or hear my voice every day. I have been able to celebrate Mother’s day for the past three years (one pregnant, 2 with our little mister) and I have enjoyed being able to share this day with my mom. My sister was able to celebrate her first Mother’s day today. I love seeing this strong young woman, who acts more like our mom everyday, be a mom. Her little Max  adores her to pieces. I hope our boys will someday be able to say “Grammy thank you for teaching our Mom’s what it means to be a Mother”.  Happy Mother’s day to two of the most beautiful momma’s I know! Happy Mother’s day to all of you moms, moms-to-be, and those who are struggling to become parents. Enjoy your day!
