This is an open letter to all of those lucky people who got to spend Mother's Day with their moms this weekend.

I hope you had a great day with your family. I wish I could be home to be with mine. Where I'm going with is: cherish it. All of those memories you made this weekend on Mother's Day. Remember those and keep them close to your heart.

For those of you who didn't get to spend it with your family, I feel you. Make sure you give your family a call. Tell them you love them and you wish you could have been there. It will mean the world to them. When you do get to go home, spend extra time with your family. Make sure they know you love them and that they are the most important thing in the world to you. I mean who would we be without them?

What it all comes down to is this: be grateful for the time you have with those you love.

We take things for granted way too often. We leave home without thinking twice about it. And I know it sounds morbid but we never truly know when the last time you see someone will be. Whether that's your family or your friends, you never know. Make sure you remind them from time to time of how much they mean to you.

If you missed Mother's Day this weekend or forget someones birthday, whatever it is, it is never too late to make a phone call and let them know how much they mean to you.
