To be a mother is to know life, to know that it is a miracle, to know how hard and painful it can be, how exquisitely beautiful, that life is what you make of it, and also that you have absolutely no control.

To be a mother is to know your magic and also to know what’s real.

To be a mother is to be humbled and to be grateful, to be forgiving and constantly giving… giving as much as you possibly can and feeling like that is never enough.

To be a mother is the greatest gift I have received in this life… but of course there is the gift of life itself.

To be a daughter is to understand your own mother more and more everyday and to hope she knows how much you love her.

To be a mother is to love so much you know that same love in return can only come from the Great Mother of all mothers.

Mom, I hope you know how much I love you and that by being a mother each day I learn how much I didn’t know. Your journey has been nothing short of heroic. Sometimes I can hear Christopher’s voice saying to me “Mom is amazing.” He always had your back. You had his. You have had mine in unimaginably heartbreaking moments. You have had mine in every moment there has been to celebrate and also just in every moment… you are there for it… the gorgeous whole of it.

This photo, this day, will always mark for me the day I knew what it was to be a family, our family, and that, no matter what, I couldn’t be more proud of us.

So. Much. Love.

Happy Mother’s Day

Whatever your family story is, one thing is shared, we all come from a mother who gave us life the best she could. Sending so much love to everyone on this day of big feelings around what it is to have a mother, be a mother, want to be a mother, not want to be a mother, miss a mother…

My blessing for us all is to find the Mother Wisdom within and create our lives from a place of loving exactly who we are and who we came here to be.

Make your mother proud. ♥️ | Posted on 12/May/2024 21:40:08
