Happy Mother's Day!

Where would we be without our Mothers?  

In 1912, Anna Jarvis trademarked the phrases "second Sunday in May" and "Mother's Day", and created the Mother's Day International Association.  Anna was specific about the location of the apostrophe; it was to be a singular possessive, for each family to honor their Mother, not a plural possessive commemorating all Mothers in the world. 

Sure enough, Mothers are truly extra special people!

My own Mom is so extra special to me that sometimes I have a hard time adequately articulating exactly how special she is to me!  It shouldn't be this difficult.  But there isn't one word to describe her!  My Mom is perhaps the kindest, most virtuous women I have ever met.  I am truly PROUD of my Mom and I am truly thankful to be her daughter. 

M-O-T-H-E-R by Howard Johnson

M is for the million things she gives me
O means only that she's soft to hold
T for the things she tries to teach me
H is for her heart of purest gold
E for her eyes with love light shining
R means right and right she'll always be

Put them all together they spell Mother,
A word that means the world to me!

Today, families gather to celebrate their Mom with a special meal, gifts, perhaps a song or two too! Wherever you are today, whatever you and your Mother are doing today, celebrate your Mom this Mother's Day, ENJOY her company and your time together!  Have an extra special Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to my Mom and Mother's everywhere including yours!  Have a wonderful day!
