mother's day 2009 8:29 am

a few weeks ago i asked rebecca if i could link to her birthday post for mother’s day
you’ll need to cut and paste as i haven’t fully figured out wordpress yet – but it’s so worth it – even if you read it back in april

motherhood is a team sport
you cannot play it alone
the best mother’s gather their team and keep gathering
sometimes trading
as they learn the sport and the skills required

thank you
all of you
for being on my team

for making it more fun
and for challenging me to be my best

my life would not be the same without you
our life would not be as good without you

and of course i cannot end today’s post without a quick shout out to my own mother
who i do not believe reads this blog
but who none the less gave me my love of reading
and of knowledge
and my respect for courage
and my love for the people on the fringe
and more than anything
my sense of humor
and
thank god for that

happy mother’s day to all of you
