Mother's Day

I read a newspaper article yesterday that opined that Dads are responsible for making Mom feel special on Mother's Day at least "from gestation to the moment they [their kids] can hold a glue stick." It made me laugh --not because I necessarily agree with the sentiment but because Anika spent the afternoon yesterday with a glue stick, making me a card. She was so excited to hand it to me this morning. Andrew gave me a great big hug (a super hug) and Kathryn was a trooper throughout this busy Sunday. I was blessed by Anika during her conversation with her Grandma this afternoon when she said, "Today is the day we thank mom for all her hard work!" Thank you, Anika! You make the work worth doing.
