I have the good fortune and wonderful blessing of having the world's greatest mother. She is the perfect mom for me and for this I am so grateful! There are simply too many reasons to list why I love and admire her so much. But here are three:
She sits prominently in my cheering section, listens patiently all the time, and has been my rescuer many of times.
For instance, I've lost track of how many times she has hopped on an airplane, sometimes at a moment's notice, to be with me when I needed her. Fourteen Mother's Days ago, my mom was making preparations to head to California to be with me after the births of Hilary and Hannah. As I prepared to bring one baby home from the hospital and continued to worry about the other baby an hour away in the NICU, my mom was there to help me that first difficult week at home.
If I were in Arizona with her today, I would be eating dinner with her and the family and watching her laugh and love on everyone around her. Because I'm not there, I'm sending lots of love her way today. Happy Mother's Day Mom!
