The idea of the & #39;Evil Stepmom& #39;s is still prevalent (thanks, Disney) but on this #MothersDay https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> I& #39;m here to dispell the myth.

@annacroweVO has been a part of my life for over 30 years. She& #39;s been there for all my triumphs and a few of my failures.

She never tried to replace my mom, but has always been a fantastic mentor, friend, and most importantly a parent when I needed one to remind me to shape up.

She has taken care of my family far beyond her required duties, and has done it with grace and acerbic wit.

I owe her a great deal, and I thank God she has taken such an active role as & #39;Nana& #39; to Wesley and my nieces.

Happy Mother& #39;s Day, Anna. I love you.
