Dear Mom.

Dear Mom,

I wanted to write a special post for all the Moms/Mommies/Mamas out there, and an extra special mention of my own Mom.

Thanks for being such a wonderful mom, and a lovely friend.  I have many happy memories of us though the years, including many crooked hair cuts (some self-initiated), "treat days" at Scoop and Save, lots of singing, swims at the beach, and always lots of laughter.  I remember you on the morning of my wedding, making sure everything was just perfect and giving a stern 'Mom Look' to the obnoxious limo driver.  I remember how supportive you have been throughout every trial and triumph, and how you are always my number one fan. 

I know I don't take the time to thank you enough, and when I do, we usually both get a little teary-eyed (a trait I do inherit from you, by the way), but I really do love and cherish you.  For the many times I haven't thanked you enough for all the sleepless nights you've endured, very structured Home Sense walks we've taken (yes, I have some difficulty with wandering aimlessly through that store in fear of missing a great deal), the few grey hairs I've caused, and for the many nights I asked "What's for supper, Mommy?", thank you!

I am blessed.

Love,

Katie
