Happy Mother's Day

As usual, I won't be with my Mom on Mother's Day.  But, I wanted to take a couple of minutes to wish her a happy Mother's Day  (they'll be out camping with friends that day!) and to honor her with some of the many things about her that make me proud:

Her consistency
Her love for her family and for others
Her unlimited energy
Her intellect
Her sense of humor
Her musical abilities
Her honesty
Her transparency
Her heart for the hurting
Her ability to see the big picture
Her cooking and baking genius
Her creativity
Her decorating skills
Her green thumb
Her work ethic
Her strength of character
Her love of animals
Her communication skills
Her stubbornness
Her resiliency
Her perseverance

Mom, I hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day!  I love you very much.

I won't be with mine either. And it'll be sad. But I will be happy when I think about all that she is and all that she's instilled in me.

I'm sorry you and CPQ won't be with your moms this Mother's Day. But clearly, your moms are with you in all that you are and how you live. Hat tip to them and to you.

BTW, she's gorgeous.
