Mother's Day 2014

you will never have this day

with your children again.

tomorrow, they'll be a little

older than they were today.

this day is a gift.

breathe and notice.

smell and touch them;

study their faces

and little feet and pay attention.

RELISH THE CHARMS

of THE PRESENT.

enjoy today, mama.

it will be over before you know it.
