It is human nature to take things for granted
Yet it can be humbling and at the same time empowering to recognize what you have
and how things change so fast
This Mother's Day I was overwhelmed with gratitude.
Gratitude for:
-My mother, alive and doing well
-My father, for selflessly stepping in as mother when strength was needed
-My sister, for proving to be a role model and inspiration to not only her daughter but continuously to me
-Her husband, for embracing and supporting his family
-My friends, for metamorphosing into motherly versions of themselves
My family loves to have large meals on special occasions.
Typically it is either some large Portuguese extravaganza, fondue, or (my favorite) breakfast/brunch.
This Mother's Day we chose brunch:
Everyone brought flowers...flowers galore!
There were small gifts too...
