Here's To Moms

Here's to the moms on the day before Easter. 

Here's to the moms hustling to finish those last minute holiday surprises.

Here's to the moms who are just now dyeing Easter eggs because this week has been crazy and you kind of forgot until today.

Here's to the moms who are putting the final touches on Easter outfits that will probably only be worn for a couple of hours tomorrow.

Here's to the moms who are trying to teach their kids the real story of Easter so it doesn't drown in a sea of colorful plastic eggs.

Here's to the moms who will be stuffing eggs and filling baskets after the kids are in bed.

Here's to the moms who will probably get very little, if any, of the credit for the fun and memories of tomorrow - but you won't really care because the joy on those little faces will be payment enough.

I'm raising my glass to you from here in front of my sewing machine while eggs boil in the kitchen to be dyed later today. Here's to us.

Happy Easter!
