Mama’s Boy

How amazing this world would be had everyone been as blessed as I was in the mother department. I have been so showered in love and grace and understanding that sometimes it seems unreal.

There’s a old saying that behind every great man there is a great woman. That is no truer than in my house growing up. As great as my dad was, he’ll be the first to tell you that he couldn’t have done any of it had it not been for my mom. She’s more than amazing.

I know I can never repay her for all that she’s done for me, but the least I can do is live my life in such a way as to make her proud, and to show my son the same love and grace and understanding she has shown me.

There’s a special place in heaven for mothers like mine.

Woman, how divine your mission
Here upon our natal sod!
Keep, oh, keep the young heart open
Always to the breath of God!
All true trophies of the ages
Are from mother-love impearled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.
— William Ross Wallace

I’ll always be a mama’s boy.

Happy birthday mom!
I love you!!
