I write about being a mom all the time… so this Mothers Day I want to write about having a mom.
This is mine:
{and levi made her a grandma… gigi to be precise.} |
I love her.
She held me when I needed to be held.
She helped me to stand and always celebrated my growth.
She showed me what it looks like to be a stylish woman. (Check out those awesome shades!)
She kept me warm through Oregon winters.
{here we are on a short stint living in fiji.} |
She played with me and gave me hugs when I needed them.
She’s always loved me and stood behind me.
How in the world I got so lucky to have two amazing women in my life to call mom I will never know. But this Mothers Day it’s my privilege to honor them and say thank you for being who you are: mom and mum.
Dear friends, what’s the best thing about your own mom? And, if you’re a mom yourself, I hope you have an amazing day celebrating with your family and friends.
Love,
Adriel
