Mother's Day has always been such a special holiday to me as it was a moment of much needed recognition for the woman who gave it selflessly sacrificed it all for her children. I loved trying to find a fitting gift paired with a heartfelt card to make my Mom feel the most special on this particular day. Now as a Mom myself I am reflecting on this Mothers Day. Remembering the special moments I spent with my Mom. The memories that will outlast her lifetime and that I will cherish in my heart foever. I am thinking about the stories I want to tell my kids about their Nana and what an incredible Mom she was to me! She doesn't know what the significance of it being "Mother's Day" means but that won't keep me from celebrating her and making her feel extra special! My sweet Everett and Haven have made me a Mom and although they have and will teach me more about myself and life than anyone can. I learned what it means to be a Mom from mine. I learned true sacrifice and unconditional love from her. I hope to continue her legacy by raising my kids in a way that would make her proud! I wish so badly she could love on them and play with them like she would really want to. In the moments she gets on the floor and "roars" with Everett or laughs at his laughter or stares at Haven and says "she's so pretty" or "so precious" I get a tiny glimpse of the Nana she deserves to be and it is moments I will carry in my heart forever!
So Happy Mother's Day 2016 to my hero! I am proud to be yours and blessed
by all the moments we have together!
Everett and Haven... Words cannot describe my love and adoration for you two! You are undoubtedly the absolute best gifts that I have ever been given. I am so proud to be your Mom!! Each day with you is filled with wonder and challenges and there is nothing I would change about a single one! I love you both to the moon and back!
