She is the silliest, goofiest, most patient and loving mother I could have ever asked for. My mom is endlessly curious, strikingly intelligent, bitingly sarcastic, extremely outgoing, and will always go out of her way for the peace and comfort of those around her, even total strangers.
It drove me crazy in my insecure teenage years because my mom would call me beautiful but would claim she was never a real beauty. This is objectively nonsense and she absolutely always has been and still is the most loving and beautiful woman I know. We as women are too hard on ourselves and it pains me that weβre taught to shrink/diminish our sparkle from a young age so as to appear humble and demure. Today I will again remind her that she is so beautiful inside and out and I am so grateful to be her daughter, love you momma! π
