Giving Mom Her Flowers

Today is Mother's Day, so this post goes out to all the amazing mothers who do so much for their children and their families.  Until you witness in action, it's easy to take for granted the long hours of caretaking that mothers spend on feeding, doting, cleaning, organizing, teaching, and loving--often at the expense of their own well-being. It's so commonplace that it's just an expected thing, but it's a lot of work on top of mom's day job work! Long hours, lack of sleep, constant worry... moms suffer from all of this to make sure their children are well and safe and thriving.  Without them, we literally wouldn't be where we are.

So on this day, even more than normal, we should all be saying: Thank you, Mom.
