Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's Day is upon us once again. What are you going to do for your Mom this Mother's Day? A nice lunch or dinner? Card? Flowers? Candy? Breakfast in bed? New vacuum cleaner?

Nix that last one. Not a good idea.

Regardless of what you do, make sure you're good to your Mom. Treat her with love and respect. Honor her in whatever you do. Make her feel special. Let her know that she's important to you.

My Mom has been gone for many years now, and we all miss her greatly. She was my best friend throughout my high school years. I could go to her for everything. She was a coach, motivator, confidant, my greatest fan and my toughest critic. I learned so many valuable lessons from her and she helped to shape the person that I have become as an adult.

I see a lot of my Mom's qualities in my wife, Jolene. Jo is a strong woman, a great mother and a wonderful, loving wife. Of course, she had a great teacher in her own Mom.

So thanks, Mom Moody, for molding your beautiful daughter into a fantastic woman, wife and mother.

Happy Mother's Day!
