No surprises this year. And I get spend part of it with two of the three moms in my life. You see I enjoy two moms; not of the Heather has two variety but it would be okay if that were the case. One I share with my brother Richy and our step-bro Jeff, whose dad, since passed, married our mom. Richy and I share with Rob, his mom Jean and our late dad. Mom Phyllis (Pic from her reaching 3/4 at left.) lives in Florida (Her gift arrived yesterday.). Mom Jean lives a short walk from my alma mater Hofstra which “took” seven (not consecutive) years of my life. Marisa made lunch arrangement for her mom and Jean this afternoon and I get to provide the transportation.

So on this Mother’s Day – a special benefit of blogging on Sundays, I celebrate the benefits of two moms and thank them for being who they are, and thank my wonderful and beautiful wife, Shelly, the mom of Jonathan and Marisa for being who she is.

And of course as I wish on every Mother’s Day since taking on the Sunday Gotham blogger role, 

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms!
