To Mom

Because today I can't be with her...

Happy Mother's Day to the woman who put up with this...

 and this...

and encouraged this...

even though, well, I was better at this...

she loved me when I had no idea what I was doing...

 and has always been my biggest cheerleader...

 she taught us to face each day with enthusiasm, excitement, and a great outfit...

because she knows that these days go fast...

and all of a sudden, this day comes...

 and goes...

 although times together are rare...

she has set the bar high.

her faithfulness as a wife, mother, and daughter is the best road map we ever could dream of. 

to the woman behind the camera. and our biggest fan.

Thank you, Mom.
