Happy Mother's Day

This is the first Mother's Day without my Mom! I am spring cleaning at our parents and family home on the lake this week. As I sort out and re-organize closets, I am being taken down memory lane. Mom kept her treasures and I haave the honor to peek into them. I have spent hours as time unfolds the many gifts left behind. I laugh with sweet joy and I cry with tears of love as I feel her energy around me.

With Mother's day coming, I feel the loss of my Mom. As I reach into the emptiness that grief takes me, I journey to the details in cards she received and notes she wrote. Every compartment of a hutch or drawer holds precious gifts of Mom's life that she treasured.

As I journey with my life without my Mother physically, I feel her so present and I know that she is here with me in my heart. My tears have created more space and this is where she lives.

When I connect to my heart I feel you Mom.
Thank you, I miss you xoxoxo

To all Mothers....May you feel grace and loveliness as you connect to family love as your reflection. I am in gratitude to your loving kindness.
I celebrate each of you.

As a Mother, I give thanks to my children for choosing me to be their Mom.
I love you to the moon and back.
HAVE A LOVING MOTHER'S DAY
