mommy's day

I feel like by becoming a mom, I've joined some sort of secret club.  A club with supporters everywhere I turn and where all of the other members have a pretty good idea of how I'm feeling at any given moment.  I can see a kid doing something sweet and look up to see other women nearby smiling at the same kid just like I am.  We don't have to say anything to each other - we know we're part of the same secret club.  Only it's not so secret.  Everyone's always said how great it is to be a parent, but I think I've just never listened.  And, more importantly, there's nothing that anyone could ever have said that would accurately describe how insanely cool it is to be a mom.  It's the most challenging thing I've ever done and the most rewarding.  I'm so lucky to be a mommy to my little Gogo and I'm so lucky to have been born to my wonderful loving mom.

Happy mother's day to all the members of this not-so-secret club!
