Mother's Day

Dear Max and Maggie,

I used to call my mom to wish her a happy mother's day and she would go on and on about how grateful she was for me and my siblings rather than letting me tell her how grateful I was for her. I never understood it. But I do now. I love being a mom! And I love that I get to be your mom! I think you two are the best things in the whole world! I feel silly having a day to honor me as a mom because I feel like it is my privilege to be a mom, not something I should be thanked or appreciated for.  I feel so honored that I get to have you. I love you both so much! Thanks today and everyday for being my kids and making motherhood such a wonderful thing for me!

I love you!!!

Mom
