Crayoned cards and handpicked dandelions and pop cycle stick magnets. 

Watercolor hand prints and fill-in-the-blank letters and tissue flowers.

Mother’s Day

Chocolate, a coffee gift card, a necklace.

These are ways to honor mom.  She appreciates them and puts them in her drawer.

And then there are ways to honor a mom whose children are her very life.  Whose life without them would fail to thrive.

A face-to-face call, a spend-the-day-with-us, a plan-a-trip-with-us, a this-is-what-you-mean-to-us, a let-me-do-that-for-you, a made-especially-for-you, a-we-love-you out loud all day.

Mother’s Day.  Everyday.

Is how this mom is able to keep momming.

Thank you Bears, for sacrificial, genuine, mom-honoring, everyday Mother’s Day.
