I have been a mom for two and a half years. This “being a mom” thing has completely changed my life. I feel so blessed. And so amazed by my little girls. They are growing up so fast. They used to call me “Ommy.” Now they call me “Mommy.” One day Erica called me “Deborah.” We got that one figured out. . . “Daddy and other grownups call me ‘Deborah,’ but you guys call me, ‘Mommy.’”

Anyway, nothing makes you appreciate your own mom more than experiencing all this, and trying to imagine everything that she went through to help you get from baby to grownup in one piece. I love you, Mom.
