On the cover this month is our friend Heather Brent of CW31 Good Day Sacramento and her #adorable kids in a fun photo by Michael J Mangano showing just a little bit of what it is like to be a supermom, juggling a million things at once like moms are expected to do. All moms are supermoms when you get right down to it. They handle everything, they make it great to be a kid and there is really nothing more special than a relationship between a mom and child. My wife Becky is the most amazing mom. Our girls Abbey and Madison are so fortunate to have her in their lives. She is creative, talented, crafty, pretty, caring and loving and her super mom skills have made our family so special. My Mom will win some sort of eternal MOM award for raising me as I was a lot more than a handful. From a small skinned knee, to a costume for class plays, or just a hug to nurse a broken heart or a sad time, or even just a smile, Moms have one of the most important roles in the world.

Things are different for everyone and being a mom or a dad can mean so many things. Many dads need to be a mom sometimes and there are moms out there that have to be both mother and father to make it all work.

We celebrate all of the supermoms out there that do the best they can for their kids and family. We live in a great community where people look out for each other and treat people like family and for this I am thankful. We love our moms all year long but make a point to send out a special greeting to our moms on Mother’s Day May 9. No gift is too big to too small if it is done with love and care. You don’t need an elaborate dinner, or extravagant gift. Just like the Beatles say, All You Need is Love.
