celebrating mothers day early ~ i’m thankful to mom for being there, for loving me, and for doing the best she can. through my relationship with her, i’ve learned that no matter how hard we try, we cannot convince others to do what we feel is right, but we can still love and appreciate them in spite of their shortcomings. everyone lives their lives in the way they see most fit. rarely do we learn by watching others fall; it is only after we’ve fallen and scraped our own knees that we can take a lesson to heart. so do what makes you happy, mom.
