Happy mother's day to all you moms out there! This was the first year anyone has ever congratulated me as a mother. Ryan thought it was silly but I think I am deserving seeing as how I have now abstained from alcohol for five months! Such sacrifices mothers make! (just kidding...).
Really though, it was a time for reflection. It was a day I thought about how grateful I am for my own mother. And it was also a day I morned for all of the people who have lost their mothers, or have bad mothers, or take their mothers for granted. Everywhere I looked (tv commercials, magazine covers, internet ads in the sidebars, etc.) was highlighting the fact it was mother's day. Now that I have lost my father I know what a sad day this can be for some people. My heart goes out to all of these people. My mom is so amazing. I really do not know what I would do without her and I hope that my child will think of me the same way.
