Celebrating Moms

Mother - noun: a female parent.


     As far as mothers go, I do believe I have the best one. My mom is my hero. After two weeks of trying to play house, dishes, laundry, cleaning, making dinner and trying not to ruin it. I have come to realize that my mother deserves to be worshiped. I do not know how she managed three rambunctious children, a husband, homeschooling, a household and still kept her sanity. I thought I was literally going to throw in the towel trying to cook dinner for my boyfriend. I love that along the way my relationship with my mom has developed from a parent/child dynamic to a mother/daughter friendship based on love and mutual respect. As I have worked through this stage of life where I am dipping my toes into this whole grown up world, my mom has been there every step of the way. Not hovering but a reassuring presence that knows me better than just about anyone. She should. She raised me. So much of who I am today has come from the influence of my mother's dedication to our family. I want to take this opportunity to say thank you. Thank you Mom. For the lasting impact you have made on my life.
