It's our first Mother's Day in our new family. The baby is already 8 months old. Amazing to think that so much has happened since she was born. We're so very blessed.
I can't tell you how much I miss my own mother. On days like today it's especially poignant. Although I know that both she and my father are "looking down" at what's going on I wish they could have been here for the baby's birth and meet her in person.
I urge those of you who still have your mother's here to cherish this time. I would give anything to have one more day to share, to talk, to laugh. It is a special day for very special people in our lives...celebrate them.
Happy Mother's Day.
