With Love on Mother's Day...

Thanks to You,

Our Kids Know the Best

of a Mother's Love

Thanks to you and all that you do,

someday our kids will look back on this

time in their lives and realize how

lucky they were to have you as a mom.

Because of you, our kids will someday

look back on their childhoods and remember

some of the happiest birthdays, holidays, and

family vacations that any children ever had.

They will grow up knowing how much

they are cared about and loved. Whatever

they encounter, they'll always be full of

confidence and hope, because they know how

much their mom believes in them.

Our kids will always know that they can

find safety and comfort in their mother's

arms; hope and strength in her caring

heart; and acceptance and love in her

beautiful smile.

They may not realize all of these things

this Mother's Day -- at least not in ways

that they can put into words -- so I'm

telling you. We're all so lucky to have

you in our lives: the best wife and

mother there could ever be.

Happy Mother's Day, My Love
