Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day mom! You really are the best. 

If you haven't met Nancy, let me introduce you (via the blog...what else?!). My mom is an amazing cook, seriously...amazing! She is my pick for Top Chef any day of the week. My mom can garden like nobody's business. Her yard is full and beautiful. HGTV should get her number! My mom can decorate. Her home is a canvas for her incredible style. See previous HGTV comment :) My mom can put together an outfit! Her style expands far beyond the walls of her home. She is the cutest mom out there! But those are all the outer details. She is far more beautiful on the inside than her Manhattan chairs or her Ann Taylor skirts or her Japanese Maple...

My mom is the most welcoming person I know. She has the ability to invite anyone (and sometimes everyone :) into her home and make them feel like they are a part of the fam. My mom loves kids. And quite often, she loves the kids that don't appeal to adults. She appreciates their quirks and traits that others might view as annoying or goofy. She embraces the challenge of giving children the gift of a voice, and loves doing so. My mom loves her family. It amazes me how she blesses us by inviting us into her house and serving us, whether it is serving a meal, a listening ear, or a "how to" on gardening, sewing, or cooking!  Well, I could go on, but you get the idea. My mom is a wonderful, amazing woman with a kind heart. Mom, on behalf of all your kids...We love you!!!
