Mother’s Day 2010. Â What a special day today was. Â It was my mommy’s first mother’s day. And boy did she earn a special day just for her. Â My mother is plain and simply the best! Â Yes, I may be biased, but she really is amazing.
She manages to always be there for me. Â Whether I am hungry or just wanting a hug, she is always one step ahead of me. While I was in the NICU for all those months she rarely left my side. For close to 6 months after I was born my mother labored to get me as much breast milk she could produce to give me every fighting chance and advantage to be healthy and strong. Â And this was no easy task. Once I started eating eating solids….there was no Gerber baby food for me. Â Mommy seeks out and buys special organic food and cooks it up for me. Thanks to her, I have sampled and eaten more delicious fruits and veggies than most adults have ever tried.
Mommy teaches me to be strong like her. Â She teaches me to have a sense of humor just like her too (watch out world once I get started talking). Â She leads by example how a mother can be a smart powerful professional at the top of her field and still be there for me and daddy and make a wonderful home. Â Mom spoils me most of the time but knows when to let me cry it out. Mommy dresses me in pink dresses, but makes sure I know who the New York Yankees are.
Thank you mommy for being the best!
Daddy let me sleep in bed so I could surprise mommy as soon as she woke up. Â When mommy woke up I gave her all her cards and gifts. Â Daddy and I got her a 90 minutes message and a crystal cube with a picture of me and mommy for her desk at work. Â After mommy checked out all her loot we met Nanna, Aunt Addie, Uncle Seth, and cousins Sammy and Hannah for brunch. Â All the mommyies there were celebrated for being wnderful. Â And I am lucky that mommy has such great examples of other great mommies like Nanna, Grandma, Aunt Addie, and Aunt Melissa in her life.
I could go on and on here, but will save the room for the pictures. Â Happy Mothers Day to all the Mommies out there!
