But today not only do we want to celebrate the ways that we've been blessed; we want much more to honor so many women out there. First to our Mamas, now affectionately known as Grandma and Nana... we are forever indebted to you for your prayers and support, love and encouragement, wisdom and simply everything... really, words fail us.
And then on to our sisters (the term in-law not even necessary) who inspire us by their example to lead, guide, and love our kids in such powerful and creative ways... to grandmothers who have gone on to watch us from Heaven above...to our friends who have trail blazed before us or who currently walk alongside us... to aunts, cousins, and other family who too have shown us the way... to our friends who love kids and young people so beautifully every day whether in hospitals, in classrooms, on campuses, in their homes, at the homes of others, and beyond... to the moms of many of those friends who are like second mothers to us... to the mothers out there, whether we know you or not, that bravely face each new day though circumstance calls you to do it on your own or to do it inspite of the hardships you faced as a child... to the spiritual mothers at every age who have answered the courageous call... to the women who have opened up their hearts and homes to love children whom they did not birth, but are fully mother to... to the women who get up every day and go about this life with the purpose of making it a better place, a place where our children will know the way.
This list could go on, but the message the same- "You are worthy to be celebrated!" Our love to each of you!
