You’ll have to excuse me.  I know that I’m a solid day late with this, but I’ve had a busy weekend and a bad day yesterday.  Anyway, the fact that I didn’t mail out any Mother’s Day cards for yesterday made me feel kinda bad, so I figured I have a 75% chance that both of my moms will read a “blog card” if I write one.  (For those who don’t know me or haven’t read all of my blog entries from the beginning, you can figure out what I’m talking about here.  Also, I arrived at the 75% chance number by assuming that my mother here in New Jersey will definitely read it and that there is a 50/50 chance that one of my siblings in Korea will see the picture of our 엄마 and get it translated for her.)

First though, I’ll quickly run through the pictures below.  I’m sorry for the bad Photoshopping in the first image.  I was in a rush and used the first pictures that I could find.  The other pictures are from Braddock’s Tavern in Medford, NJ.  I took my Mom there on Saturday for Mother’s Day.  The food wasn’t their best, but Braddock’s is pretty much a staple restaurant for all Medford residents.  The price for our lunch was a little higher than usual because we had a few drinks so don’t let that scare you away from trying Braddock’s in Medford, NJ,  it’s actually priced quite reasonably.

Okay, here we go.  My first “blog card.”  I suck at writing, so I make no guarantees Moms that this card will be good.  None the less, I hope this works out so that I never have to send out real cards again.

Moms ~

Regardless of what has happened in the past.
No matter what will happen in the future.
I want you both to know that I will always be here for you,
Like you promise to always be there for me.

I know that I don’t tell you this enough. Or ever, really. But…
For all of the sacrifices you’ve made for me,
For all of the lessons that you’ve taught,
And for all of the tears that I know you’ve shed on my behalf,
I truly do appreciate it.

I know that all of my past and future successes are in some way because of you.
I am thankful to God for having both of you in my life.
You are both perfect examples of why mothers are quintessential unsung heroes,
And I hope you know that I love you.

Happy Mother’s Day.

Happy Mother's Day
