So with Mother’s Day right around the bend, it makes me of course think of my own mom. Here are some facts about her:
- I think her dream early on in life was to be either a nun or a teacher…she chose the later. What amazes me is back in the 60’s, she not only taught full time, but went to night school to earn her Master’s Degree.
- She is the most spiritual person I know. Church, God, and prayer play a huge role in her life.
- She loves….her family, coffee, and laughing.
- Facing new challenges may scare her, but she always marches forward.
- I think she knows all the songs to every musical ever made.
- Taking drives through Amish roads is something she enjoys along with bird watching.
- Anytime she is in the sun she has a hat on.
- She is attracted to sunglasses with really large lens.
- She is always honest, caring, and forgiving.
- Sweets=weakness
- One of her favorite phrases: “It is what it is.”
To be in your child’s memory tomorrow, you have to take time today. My mom did just that as we were growing up!
Hugs!
