"There is no love like a mother’s – she who carries the child that God knits in the womb, she who nourishes and guides, she who teaches and inspires, she who gives of her heart and soul and self for the good and the happiness of her children and her family." - Ronald Reagan.
Happy Mother's Day! ◼ Republican Governors Association
“The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world”—a phrase so simple, yet so profound in its expression of a mother’s importance. Mothers have been entrusted with the responsibility of raising life’s most precious resource—our children.
I appreciate my mom and the example of love and grace she has been throughout the years. Thank you, Mom!
Todd and I also appreciate the honor of being the parents of five wonderful kids and two amazing little grandkids who have enriched our life together in more ways than I could have ever imagined. Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper, and Trig are my life, and being joined now by Tripp Easton and Kyla Grace, I know that no matter what is going on in the world around me, they are the ones who keep me grounded. They are my daily reminders of what really matters.
Even as we celebrate Mother’s Day with family today, please stop to think of the many mothers who are separated from loved ones serving in the military and keeping us safe. I've been there, and especially today my heart goes out to those Blue Star moms who are missing their sons and daughters, while being so very proud. More than ever my heart extends to the precious Gold Star moms who are spending today holding on to memories of a child who paid the ultimate price. Whether it's been far away in specified combat zones, or attacks globally throughout the ongoing battle to defend our republic, or nearer home as the result of terrorist acts like Ft. Hood, the sacrifice of our military personnel and their families has not been in vain, and we will never forget.
Moms, whatever your plans today, know that you are appreciated year-round. One day is not enough to capture the essence of who you are, what you do, and the difference you make.
Driving in our truck this morning up towards Mt. McKinley, hauling kids and trailering snowmachines to launch on a trek to look for bear before the spring snow melts, I wish you a Happy Mother’s Day, and God bless you! ◼ Sarah Palin
The love of a mother is the veil of a softer light between the heart and the heavenly Father. Samuel Taylor Coleridge
All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother. Abraham Lincoln
Happy Mother's Day! The ◼ Nassau County Federation of Republican Women thanks all the moms and others who have been just like moms for giving love and affection, comfort and support, guidance and caring... and helping make the world a better place for all us!
Thanks to all moms who give sacrificial love every day to strengthen and care for their family, especially my wife, Karen! Happy Mother's Day! ◼ Rick Santorum
