mama.

When I think of all the things I love most about my life, my relationship with my mom is right near the top.

I feel like such a lucky girl to have a lady like her in my life. Because really, there is no one quite like her. And she's one of those people that you can't help but love. Even if you don't know her.

I work every single day to make her proud and to help her realize just what a wonderful mother she has been. So that she might also realize I've taken everything she's taught me to heart.

She's helped me to see the good in things. She's taught me compassion and service. And she's just pretty darn great.

Happy Mother's Day to all the beautiful mothers out there.
