This is the day set aside to remember and honor our mothers. The bond between a mother and a child is probably the strongest relationship we have. Fathers love their children also, but mothers know and love them from the time they're the size of a pea! Only those of us who have experienced pregnancy can understand the excitement of the "quickening", the thrill of hearing that tiny percolating heartbeat, the awe of seeing that sweet face for the first time. Being a mother is a tough job and none of us are perfect. We all make mistakes in the name of love and will no doubt be disappointed in our offspring once in awhile---that's just normal. Not everybody can grow up to be a nuclear scientist or a brain surgeon. If your children turn out to be decent, law abiding citizens, you've been a successful parent. Happy Mother's Day, everybody!
