Barbara says Thank You!!!

Since I joined the WBTV morning team... I've read and heard some really cool comments from viewers.

THANK YOU!

I know seeing a new face is often jolting... and that's all the more reason for me to say thank you for being patient through our transitions... and for giving me a chance.

I'm really having a good time (minus some of these terrible stories we uncover). John, Chris and Chuck are cool, down to earth dudes! And our behind the scenes crew... THEY ROCK!

See you dark and early,

Babbs

A Day for Mothers...

Once a year, a mother gets one day all for her own - Mother's Day.

On this day, we tell our mother what we should be saying all year long...how special she is, how much we love her and how we owe her more than we could ever say.

And somehow...it's enough. She takes that love, and knows that you mean to say it every time you see her.

Its days like today that I take time to reflect on just how important my mother is to me.

When I've disappointed her, the sadness in her eyes are like needles to my skin, but I know no matter what - she'll always love me. And that love can never be tarnished.

"The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness."
- Honore de Balzac

My mother is like a one-woman band, when it comes to being my cheering section, and my stepping stone when I fall. I know that no matter where I am, or how old I get - my mother will always be my number one fan. Sitting at the sideline of my life...cheering me on.

So on this day, I join the rest of the nation in saying:

"Thanks Mom...I love you, Happy Mother's Day!"
