Today I am blessed to be a Mother. My daughters are blessed to be Mothers, too.
Today I vow that I will be the best mother (and grandmother) I can be.
Today I vow that I will love as deeply as I can those that share my life.
Today I know that I am blessed indeed~
Today I hope that you find blessings in your own life-and love your Mother even if it is just because she gave you life.
Happy Mother's Day from Me to You~

I really love that you acknowledge that not all moms are perfect or what everybody thinks of as a "mom". I'm so glad that my mother and I have a great relationship and that I can say I would love to be like her.
