In 2019 I became a single mom. Mother’s Day had already been a bittersweet day because of losing my mom when I was 18.

That first Mother’s Day became a day I felt the most loved in a really long time. I valued the special things my boys did to make the day special. For weeks prior I had witnessed pure love from them.

It’s my four boys that gave me the courage to keep going when I didn’t think I could. It was their example of faith, strength, determination and a clearer understanding of things that gave me hope.

They were strong for me in ways I wished they would never have to be yet I am so thankful they did because I needed it too. I admire them and look up to them…they are all taller than me now.😊

I imagine that I agreed to the hard in my life with God before I came to Earth. And I believe that the only reason I agreed to it was because I would get my boys to be in my life.

I am so blessed. I love that we have added a beautiful daughter-in-law. She exudes so much light.

Cheers to a day we celebrate the women in our lives. So much of who I am is because of my angel mother. I love the women that have been examples for me through the years and shown me how I also want to live my life.

Happy Mother’s Day to everyone, including the men that are carrying the load of both rolls because of divorce.

We got this! We can celebrate amongst the tears of unfairness.

Have a beautiful day. Huge hugs! 🌸🙏🏼🫶🏼
