So it’s almost Mothers Day and I’m sure all of you have your card sent out and are ready to spend a special day pampering mom, as am I.  May being the month of mother’s day got me thinking about my mom and my wedding. My mom is no longer just “mom” now she is referred as “mother of the bride”. A much more official sounding title. My mom may not show her excitement for my wedding or get very involved like most moms would. But I know deep down she is so happy that I am moving forward with my life and that I will be well taken care of by my fiancé, who by the way she adores. Since its almost mother’s day I want to say I am incredibly thankful that my mom helped me glue what seemed like millions of ribbons onto our save the date cards, without her help it would of taken me ages.

I know my mom will be there by my side through the rest of the planning and help whenever needed. I hope she knows how much I appreciate her and all that she gave me, taught me, and loved me to this point in my life.

I can not wait to see her all dolled up in a beautiful dress and fancy hair and makeup smiling as she watches her youngest child get married. I’m sure it’s a little hard to let go of her baby but I know she is also so happy. So mom, this one’s for you.

Have a Happy Mothers Day!
