To My Mama,
Thanks so much !! Wow would have thought what moms really do. When i was little i never remember you being short with me. I never remember you being aggervated with me.
Now i need to rise up to how you were mom. I’m a dang good mom but i guarantee you no one could match up to a mom like you nope not even me.
I remember you making us happy, dad happy and making sure the business thrived in the mix. You mom never had time for yourself you never put you first. That gets crazy and its simple to see that you were super woman. And we had no idea.
Not only did i get everything i wanted i still had so much love from you that i still feel you holding me cuddling with me and brushing my hair. Everytime i was scared i got in the bed with you and you didnt fuss.
Details of my valentine and easter baskets are as clear as yesterday i was young so yes Ca’Rin is at the age where she will be remeber things from now on.
Sure being a mom is something you just “do” & go on with life but some people really suck at it . And you were the best !! name one person better at being a mom and think hard ?? Yep i couldnt think of one either.
I know i kept you up so many nights worried about me i was doing everything i wasn’t supposed to be doing and you still loved me !! Everything you told me when i was not doing the right thing was 100% correct every single detail right down to my relationship. No i didn’t think i was listening then but i was just think if you wouldnt have told me the cold hard truth then !!! Hindsight is always 20/20 but guess what ? now every single thing you tell me i pay attention and know your right.
I’m 30 years old and you still amaze me at what a awesome mom you are i would be lost and confused without you. You can look at me and tell what im thinking everytime you see me. Somedays after work i come there and take a huge bubble bath and you bring me coffee and watch my kids !!! I bet no one else gets to do anything like that. I feel lucky and special that i got you.
I hope one day that Jack and Ca’Rin love me half as much as i love you and i will be pleased.
One day when i see that your getting old i promise to be patient with you like you were with me when i asked the same questions over and over. When your old one day you don’t have to worry about a thing even if you don’t know who i am and your 90 you will be right here with me in my home.
It’s hard to explain how a really special mom makes their kid feel it’s just strange to me that we have such a strong connection and i enjoy every single second.
Life is crazy and even crazier with kids it would be so easy and simple to get knocked off track. I am so glad i derailed before i had kids but even if i would have had kids and derailed they would have still loved no one like their mom.

XOXO
