Mama Monday!!!


“The most surprising thing about being a mother (that no one tells you) is that it’s harder than it looks—it will change you forever.”

I want to start Mama Monday's with a tribute to my amazing mama.

See, my mom is/was a hippie. She's all about love and kindness.

She taught my sisters and brothers and I to be kind to everyone, not to judge. She never pushed us to do anything and encouraged us to follow our hearts.
My childhood memories are filled with happiness thanks to her.

I never fully appreciated or understood just how amazing she is until I became a mom myself.

I find myself always turning to her with questions about the girls.

Her answer to me is most always the same, love them.

Show them love, play with them, listen to them, and nurture them.

There it is. The best advice from the best mama I know.

this is me and my mama,  31 years ago!!!
Happy Monday all!!! We're off to play in the snow (yep, snow in March!)
