A few days ago, by total surprise, I came across a wonderful blog post by my mother. She didn’t tell me anything about writing this and when I logged into Myspace I saw it in the friend updates feature and now I want to share it.

My beautiful grand-daughter Sylvia! Current mood: blessed Category: Blogging Hello everyone who comes to visit my profile…I have been watching my little angel most of this afternoon!  I would love it…if all my friends and family could catch one of the live broadcastings.   She is amazing!  I am so very proud of my son, because he has been an example of what a wonderful father is all about.  I know this because my son has a huge heart and he learned this from his mom.  I might have been a young mother indeed…but in all the years of being a mom I can remember always telling Mike that I loved him, and letting him know how important he is to me.  This is the key to nurturing a child…never stop telling them how much they are truly loved!  Mike and I had a relationship of many years of love and that is what makes him bubble this love…on to his little one.  I grew up without my dad, and Mike did the same, but this gave us both the strength that we needed to become the best parents to our children. To my son:   Love our angel Sylvia forever…give her many years of kisses and hugs!  There will come a time when you have to teach her tough love…remember one thing!!   It will pay off…as long as you tell her you love her…everyday of your life.

To My Mother:

Mom, I love you, this makes me proud of my family, you and myself! I appreciate all you’ve done for me and for all of us. I will do everything in my power to make sure our little Sylvia knows I love her every day! Life is grand!

To My Readers:

All the people out there that have kids (or don’t have kids), are (or were) raised by single parents, let’s surprise our respective mothers and fathers with a thank you! Appreciation doesn’t have to be on Mother’s Day or Father’s Day only. No matter how many times we’ve butted heads with our parents – we should take this one moment to bury the hatchet for this small second (if necessary) and say, “You’re appreciated, thank you” and oh, by the way, readers, you are appreciated, thank you!

To My Wife (a new mom):

You are definitely appreciated, thank you!
