Today is Mother's day and today I'm reflecting on the years that have past. Some of my fondest memories are the ones where just you and I spent time together. I remember the drives we would take to Baba's on a bright summer day either to Theodore, Insinger or Sheho. I remember the sun shinning, the warmth of the sun and of us in the car. Those days were some of my favorite days and I can vividly remember them to this day.
I never could quite appreciate the relationship between parent and child until I had my own children, of which you reminded me of many times :). Now that my children are almost grown into adults I find myself reflecting on those special days just like we had. I know you told me many times "enjoy every moment with your children as they grow up fast". I never thought that would happen but here I am, children that were so little once now almost adults.
You love my sister I unconditionally through the good times and the rough patches. You guided me through some really difficult times and when I thought there was no way you would call me your son, you always did. Your love never wavered and I love you so much for being the best mom in the world.
Happy Mothers Day to the very best mom a son could ever have.
