Happy Mother's Day

My mom and me at my bachlorette party, May 2006

It's a special day to recognize our mothers and other special women in our lives. And let me tell you I'm blessed to have many special women in my life!

I have the world's bestest mommy, which I am sure everyone says about their own mom, but I don't care, mine is awesome.  We have a unique relationship which I think is part of the only child thing, but I'm so proud to not only call my mom "my mom" but also "my friend."

I also have a pretty awesome mother in law. I would not have my husband without my mother in law, so she's a pretty special lady to me!

So to my mom, my mother in law and some other special moms I know - Jerri, Marie, Stef, Amelia, Samara, and Laura - I wish you all a very Happy Mother's Day.  I only hope that when I eventually join your ranks that I can be half as good of a mom as you all are. You all inspire me!
