HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND

A mother carries you in the womb, provides everything you need in your earliest years, helps you begin to grow and develop as a young child, encourages you as you struggle through adolescence, tolerates you as a teenager and young adult, supports you in your first steps as an independent grown person, and provides you with wisdom and love as long as she can. For most of that time, the sacrifice is thankless and insufficiently appreciated, by you or most others. But on Mother's Day, you have the chance to pay back one one-thousandth of her generosity.

Happy Mother's Day, Tampa Moms.
