It has been a great Mother's Day in our household. It's a busy campaign season, so it was nice to take a break and spend some time with my wife and boys. Brenda has done a phenomenal job raising our children; the world needs more mothers just like her.

I hope each of you were able to spend this day with your mother. While my mom has been gone for quite sometime now, I miss here more and more each year. However, I am so very thankful for the values she instilled in me.

To ALL of the moms out there: Thank you!
