Who is My Mommy?

I have a mother.

I love her a lot.

There was a time that I took her for granted.

I'm glad I don't do that anymore.

So, "who is she" you wonder...here are some of the best parts of my Mommy.

She's kind of a goofball!


She loves her Girls' Weekends!


She has four sisters...all younger...and a brother who passed away when he was very young. They all grew up on a farm and worked very hard. They were well known in their particular region of New York for their eyes...everyone knew the "M" sisters.


She will discuss the variations of milk with you for hours...without rolling her eyes.


She will put you in a plastic bin for no reason and push you around...simply because it makes you happy.


She has a son...that she loves very much.


She loves to get dressed up with her girls...always up for a party!


She loves Disney...loves it.


She will go on long walks...just to have a quick chat.



She will read you books even if it doesn't seem like you're paying attention.


She will hold two kids on her lap without question even if her daughter is chronically worried about her getting hurt.

She had a great time on this particular day...we all did.


She looked radiant at my wedding.


Even if it broke her heart a little bit to be losing her little girl...

Mommy...I love you so much and I hope you have a happy Mother's Day with this little tribute. Without you, I wouldn't be the woman I am today.

Now, stop crying and call me!!!
