Moms

Today I hopped onto Facebook to write a quick status update wishing all the great mothers in my life a Happy Mother's Day, which got me to thinking just how many there really are. I'm so blessed to know an incredible number of beautiful, inspiring mothers - cousins, aunts, grandmothers, friends, and so on. I'm lucky to have so many women in my life who are on this journey with me. Some are much further down the path, of course, but it's very cool to share that bond with so many amazing women.

Of course, we're thinking about two of these women in particular today...my own mother:

And Toni, Eric's mother:

Eric and I wouldn't be who we are today without these ladies!

As for this mama, I'll be spending a very fun day with my extraordinary husband and my sweet daughter while my son wiggles around in my belly. That, my friends, is an excellent Mother's Day.
