Today we celebrate the greatest women on earth... MOMS!
For me, there are a number of special moms who deserve mention here.
Dale, my wife. My best friend and soul mate. Without you, I'd be lost. I love you more today than yesterday. Thank you for loving me and thank you for letting me be me.
My three girls are moms too. I don't tell them often enough how much I love them and how proud I am of them. I'm not sure what I did to deserve you three but I'm thankful every day that we are so close. I'm glad that we are more than dad and daughter, we're friends too! I hope your day is is filled with everything you desire and MUCH more!
Darlene, my sister. The glue that binds our family together. The one I lean on when I need a shoulder. You never let me down. Thank you. You have no idea how much your support has helped me over the years.
And my mom. Taken from us so long ago. Thirty years! A lifetime. Mom, you never had the chance to meet your grandchildren but they know you, I keep your memory alive through my stories about you. It's a shame they never had the opportunity to know you as I did though, they could have learned so much! Mom, you are my inspiration. You taught by example, completely selfless in every action. I'll never forget your open door policy. Friends, family and strangers were always invited into your home and your heart. Even when we had nothing, you opened our door to anyone in need whether it was a sick relative or an abused Foster child or just a friend looking for a little comfort. I think you would be proud of the man I have become. I know you would be proud of your grandchildren. I also know how lucky I was to be your son.
Happy mothers day everyone!!
