Happy Mother’s Day to every one of you who work hard to be the best parent, friend, partner, buddy to laugh with, shoulder to cry on, sounding board, ambassador of culture, minister of fun and all around organizer of life as your family knows it! I hope that each and every one of you enjoys a fabulous day where you are lavished with all the compliments, love and attention that I know you so richly deserve!
I realize that Mother’s Day is a day for all of those we dote on all year along to just say thanks (and of course for us to thank our own fabulous mothers) but I always like to take a few moments and just count my blessings. To revel in the fact that I actually have the opportunity to be a mother. I don’t share a lot on this blog about my personal life but my children were hard won. Many disappointments and many rounds of IVF. With my youngest, we were only given a 1-2% chance of success. I savor every hug, every tear and even every tantrum. But sometimes, like a lot of us, I get wrapped up in life and work and it’s always nice to have a day, a special day, to step back and just be grateful for the tremendous (rambunctious) gifts I’ve been given.
I hope you have a fabulous Mother’s Day and are able to take a moment to truly revel in wonderfulness of your life as well!!
