My mother is my best fan. She has always loved, encouraged and supported me unconditionally. She taught me to have the patience to accept the things that were unchangeable. She reassured me that I could change almost anything if I could dream. She explained things to me, so that I would know the difference. For this, I appreciate my Mom and the serenity prayer that is hidden in my heart.

Mama imparted many words of wisdom, but one that has come in handy in this Facebook world is, “A lady is never photographed with a drink in her hand.” I’ve always tried my best to follow this rule. I also like “Better to be overdressed than underdressed.”
Happy Mother’s Day to all (and you Mothers-to-be as well.)

When my own children were small, probably as a result of one too many tear filled phone conversations, my mother sent me a plaque that said “Children need love most when they least deserve it”. This has become the sentiment that I remember most, in good times and bad, not only with our now grown daughters, but with friends and strangers alike. Everyone deserves a little grace.

After experiencing the loss of my son a few months ago, my mom said the most comforting thing I have thus far. She hugged me and said “being a mother is the most amazing and wonderful experience you will ever experience. But being a mother to an angel is going to be the most rewarding. You will always know you have someone special looking over your should when you need him the most.” Her words have helped me cope.

I had a woman in my life who was always very critical negative and pushed my buttons. My mom asked me, is this someone you admire and want to emulate? I said, no, not really. Her advice, smile, say thank you for your comments, and promptly forget them. I have passed this brilliant advice on to friends and family on many occasions!

My mother always reminded me that your character is determined by what you do when no one’s watching. At the end of the day, she said, life is about being comfortable with the decisions you’ve made and feeling as though you’ve done the best you could with the situations presented to you.

My mom was always trying to keep my two brothers and me from fighting. She would tell us, “your other friends may be temporary, but your brothers will be with you forever.” I am so thankful that she taught us not to take each other for granted – today they are my closest friends.

When stressing the importance of a good education, my mother always said, “Your education is something that no one can ever take away from you.”
