To know my mama is to love my mama.
My mama is one of the spunkiest, most hilarious, stylish and beautiful humans I know. She’s always the life of the party and simply wants everyone to have a good time and be happy.
With Mother’s Day coming up, I’ve been reflecting a lot on my mom and the lessons she’s taught me throughout my life. One lesson that absolutely stands out (and is the reason behind my blog header) is what she tells us, kids, every time we hop out of her car. She simply says,
“Be Kind to Someone Today”
I remember hearing her voice in my head in grade school and always trying a little harder that day to find someone to be kind to.
With Mother’s Day coming up, I knew without a doubt I wanted to get us both Made by Mary Zola necklaces that say Be Kind on them. That message has always been dear to my heart and now it literally gets to be. Since I, unfortunately, don’t get to hop out of my mom’s car every day now this is a perfect reminder for me to always look at.
My mom’s skin started developing vitiligo 5 years ago and is starting to spread quickly. She’s been the most incredible example of how to handle hard situations with grace and humor so I also grabbed a bracelet to remind her how much her five kids love her. All she should think of when she looks down at her hands is her family and how much we all love her ?
I love you, Mom! Thanks for your sweet example to me.
Hope everyone has a Happy Mother’s Day next week!
