Moms, Mommies, Mamas, Momma Dukes.... Mamacita(?)

I would like to first wish all the Mothers a Happy Mothers Day even though there is approximately 1 hour and 4 minutes left of of Mommies Day, unless your on the Left Coast and then all the moms have a whole 'nother 4 hours to not change diapers, drink a margarita, shake their moneymaker and tell there husbands what to do because, "damnit its Mothers Day". 

I've got to say whoever invented the idea of a Mom was definitely wearing their smart cap that day.  Moms are easily the most versatile kind of human being.  Moms can change diapers, kiss owies, do the hair of 3-year old drama queens(special shout-out to my wife on this one), make grilled cheese just the right way, and scare away the spooky ghost or neighborhood hobo away from underneath the bed.  Dads on the other hand, basically just grunt, watch sports and tell kids to "man up" even when they are a 3-month old little girl.  Personally, I've got an extra special spot in my heart for my mom since she basically raised me up until I was 7 even though at times I'm sure she would have like to sent me off down the river biblical style.  This is a whole other reason why Moms are awesome.  You can be the worst child, the naughtiest brat, or the human form of the bubonic plague and they will still love you, nurture you and care for you like nothing ever happened.  Of course all the loving, nurturing and caring may come after they leave the imprint of a kayak oar across your backside. 

No matter what though Moms always know best.  They give the best advice, the most uplifting pep talks and whether you want to believe them or not they always know when your girlfriends are going to keepers or creepers.  Teenage males could probably save themselves a lot of time and heartbreak if they would just listen to mom when she says that the pretty little thing in a mini-skirt is just going to treat their hearts like a pinata at a 8-year olds birthday party.  All in all, I want to say thank you, not just to my mom but all the moms out there for you have the made the world a better, more beautiful place and we wouldnt be anywhere without all the Moms in the world.
