Happy Mother's Day and a big high five to all the women out there who put their heart and soul into their children. (And a second high five to all the women out there without kids, but who still put their heart and soul into bettering the world in other awesome ways.)
Per our prerogative to make an event out of every possible holiday, the Kinghorn family united last Sunday to celebrate the mothers in our lives. It was a gorgeous afternoon, full of dramatic sunlight, ice cream sundaes, and spontaneous laughter.
Without my mother, grandmother, and aunt our family would not be the thriving, unpredictable, incredible animal that it is. To show our respect and gratitude, the rest of us provided offerings of chihuahua-dressed-as-Michael-Jackson cards, king sized favorite candy bars, exhausted grand-dogs, and lots and lots of grappa.
And you know when my dad brings out the straight-from-Italy grappa that it's a special event.
I want to officially and publicly thank you Mom and Gramma. You don't only bring out the best in our family, you bring out the best in me.
