Dear Mum,
It’s hard to summarize all you do for us and how loved you make us feel, especially in a short blog post.
From the little things like stopping on your way home to grab dad a chocolate bar (that’s a story for another day!), to the big things like ensuring a beautifully decorated table for us to sit around and enjoy your delicious meals at every holiday, you always go above and beyond to ensure that your family feels exceptionally loved.
This blog is a perfect example. Recently someone pointed out how lucky I am to have a mum who has given me all of these life lessons. I have often thought this. How lucky am I to have a weekly reminder that my mum is always thinking of me, always trying to help me learn, always there? It is yet another example of how you are constantly willing to give others a piece of yourself, and for that, I am eternally grateful.
While 2019 has proven to be a fairly rough year so far, having you as my mum has made it bearable. Your constant love, reassurance, and the occasional giggle has gotten me through and made me appreciate you that much more.
I hope you know throughout the whole year how much I cherish the love that we have. It’s so much more than your average mother-daughter relationship.
You are my confidant, my sounding board, my compass and my best friend.
So especially today, I want to thank you for being so generous with your love, and for all that you do. I love you, dear mum!
Love,
Jess xo
P.S. Now, what’s taking you so long to get over here?! The bubbly is well chilled!
