Mother’s Day

Congratulations to all the Mothers our there. It is a rewarding and honorable job, probably one of the most important ever in your lifetime. If you are going through a divorce, it is even tougher. But as long as you keep your kids in mind, you will be successful. I recall a conversation some many years ago when I was lounging at the pool on a Sunday. I turned to my son who was wanting me to jump in the pool with him. I just wanted to relax and do nothing. As he tugged on my towel saying, “Mommy, Mommy, let’s swim.”, I turned to his little smiling face and said something like, “not right now, I just want to relax, it’s MY day.” He replied, “It’s my day too, you know!” Valuable lesson learned. Got it. Your children only have one childhood. Happy Mother’s Day!
