happy mother's day


since my blog title is in fact "diary of a suburban momma", i feel it fitting to pause and give a shout out to all of the mommas out there. to suburban, urban and rural mommas of the world, i love you and am thankful for the many hats that you wear on a daily basis.


i keep thinking about our impact on the world- the media is buzzing with all kinds of ways in which we leave our mar with the ways in which we live our lives- through fuel consumption, recycling, consumerism etc. and while i believe all of these things to be largely significant, the critical impact that we have on the world is demonstrated by how we live our lives. as mothers, we have the ability to love like there is no tomorrow, to listen as if each word were the last we would hear, and to encourage like mother theresa. do this! do this with other mommas, with your children and your friends children, and with your husbands. if we have any say in our imprint on the planet, let it be an imprint of love.


happy mothers day!
