My Mama

With Thanksgiving only 3 weeks away, it's on my mind (not going to lie, a break from school and work are always valued). So I was reminded today how blessed I am to have my mom.

I walk in my room after a full day of classes and work and on bed lays folded laundry, ironed dress pants, and a box of mint hot chocolate packs with a little note attached.

I walk in the kitchen and there are fresh cookies baked and dinner simmering in the crockpot.

Then, my mom walks up to my room and says to me, "Hi honey, how was your day? I was praying for you!"

My mom is one of the greatest blessings in my life. She gives up so much by staying home so that I can be successful in starting my life and career. She takes care of me and is always ready to talk to me about anything... I walk in the door and she always has a listening ear. I never realized why my mom stayed home or why it is so important for mom's to be at home...until now.

I know I wouldn't be the same person if she would not have been there for me at any moment of any day throughout my childhood and young adulthood.

Thank you Mama, I love you.
