to all mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, out there...

i love this picture of my momma that i quickly snapped when we were recently at animal kingdom. grateful for everything she does for me! i wanted to share the lyrics to a song that the littles sing for mothers day at my church, that has my heart forever swooned and thankful for the power of motherhood, and that one day i will frame by my bedroom wall as a reminder to not want to strangle my future children when they get crazy haha.

"I often go walking in meadows of clover, 

And I gather armfuls of blossoms of blue.

I gather the blossoms the whole meadow over; 

Dear mother, all flowers remind me of you.

O mother, I give you my love with each flower

To give forth sweet fragrance a whole lifetime through; 

For if I love blossoms and meadows and walking,

I learn how to love them, dear mother, from you." 

happy mothers day momma! and to all the mothers out there in the world. and in general, daughters, sisters, aunts, and all women. generations and generations of life are forever influenced by your love, kindness, and sacrifice.
