Mother’s Day is a day

to appreciate the people who we call “Mom”.

After all, there are all kinds of Mom’s in our world and our lives.

We have our Birth Moms, Surrogate Moms, Step Moms, Adopted Moms,

Moms who are In-Laws, and those who use to be.

Sometimes Mom is the one you call “Mom” even though she is not related to you.

Every time anyone celebrates their own birthday, it is Mother’s Day, really.

And I think there is no argument that a mother’s job never ends.

Which means that every day is Mother’s Day.

No matter if mom is near or far, the distance doesn’t matter.

She will always be as near as your heart.

Cherish your time with mom today--and every day.

You know she is doing the same for you--and has been long before you

made your first foot print on a piece of paper in the delivery room.

Thanks to all the moms out there. We love you.
