a grateful heart
for my mother’s heart
for as long as i can remember…
you have been by my side
to give me support, confidence, and help.
for as long as i can remember…
you were always the person i looked up to
so strong, so sensitive, so beautiful
for as long as i can remember…
you always provided love and stability for our family
full of laughter, full of tears, full of forgiveness
for as long as i can remember…
and still today
you are everything a mother should be
whatever i have become is because of you
so thankful for you
thank you for teaching me how to love and how to be loved.
i love you, mom.
with love,
your sunshine girl
hope you had a wonderful mother’s day
wedding wine on the back patio
…
what are you grateful for this week?
hope your weekend went well!

What a beautiful dedication to your mom 🙂 You're lucky to have her! and that wine on the patio looks delicious… of course the one thing I can't have looks good. Funny how that works 😉
