Thank Your Mom Today

Mom has always had a pretty thankless job - we got annoyed when she wiped our face, fixed our tie, and insisted on telling us she loved us in front of our friends. We protested when she made us clean our rooms, help with the dishes, and give Grandma a kiss.  As we grew into adults, we started to realize that all of that stupid stuff Mom made us do was her way of preparing us for the world.  Seriously, what girl is going to tolerate a guy who doesn't wash behind his ears, won't help out around the house, and refuses to act like an adult for at least one hour out of every week?  Mom, thanks for the love, the quiet guidance, and the patience - without you, I wouldn't be who I am today.  I  you, Mom.
