"Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible."  --Marion C. Garretty, quoted in A Little Spoonful of Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul

This is a very, very true story. I personally am not a mother, but I happen to have one of the best moms on the planet--one who listens and encourages and is my biggest fan, cheering me on when I think I can't go on. So Happy Mother's Day, Mom--I just hope someday I can be even a fraction of the mom you've been to me to my kids.
