Your welcome. Thank you for teaching, feeding, loving, and mothering our wonderful children the other 364 days of the year without acknowledgment from me or the kids!
The laundry and cleaning can wait until the kids grow up. The curiosity and zest for life displayed by our boys, even their skill in making messes that we didn't think possible, is a testament to your love. Only kids who feel safe in their mother's love have the freedom to explore their world and cause havoc as our boys so often do.
