Mom's Day

Happy Mom's Day. To those who are. To those who are about to be. To those who will be in the future.

My Mom has raised the 5 of us, helped tremendously in the raising of her 8 grandchildren and now, with the 2 great grandchildren.

She made it look easy, when it is clearly not.

I often think of how difficult some of those earlier days would have been with us 5, and the 6 of her sister's who often joined us. 11 kids under the age of 12 running around causing havoc. She was doing was she was born to do...being a mom.

Certainly not for the faint of heart.

Steel shopping by day, and freeflowing prose by night. One day I hope to have the nights become my days, but am intimidated by the sheer amount of people who share my dream. So I read. A lot. I learn. A lot. I push myself. A lot. The world is a small place, and getting smaller every day. I'm proud to have friends in every corner of the earth, and abide by the old adage that there are no strangers, only friends we haven't met yet.
