A couple of cool emails-

From Mommy To Mom To Mother
Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.
Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox.
Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.
Real Mothers know that dried play dough doesn't come out of carpets.
Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up (or flushed down the toilet!)
Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?' and get their answer when a little voice says, 'Because I love you best.'
Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade...It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother....
4 YEARS OF AGE - My Mommy can do anything!
8 YEARS OF AGE - My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!
12 YEARS OF AGE - My Mother doesn't really know quite everything.
14 YEARS OF AGE - Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either.
16 YEARS OF AGE - Mother? She's hopelessly old fashioned.
18 YEARS OF AGE - That old woman? She's way out of date!
25 YEARS OF AGE - Well, she might know a little bit about it.
35 YEARS OF AGE - Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.
45 YEARS OF AGE - Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?
65 YEARS OF AGE - Wish I could talk it over with Mom.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!
Wow, isn't that so true. We start out life depending on and loving our mom and then as time goes on, and we become teenagers we totally take mom for granted and like it says above...she's way out of date! I read this email and think of my mom and I and our relationship has been a lot like that and now that we're somewhere in between the 25 and 35 year old stage and I have 3 kids of my own, I'm like "wow, mom, I'm sorry for everything bad I did and THANK YOU so much for being a great mom and putting up with me!" (How did she do it?) I pray my kids don't go through that but I know unfortuntely they probably will to at least some degree but I look forward to being a Real mother and loving them no matter what (like my mommy did!).



An Interesting Commercial

Wow, that's a really cool commercial. I guess it's an advertisement that got rejected to play during the Super Bowl this year by NBC.
