To my mama...


My mama and me...

This post goes out to my mama...
My mom was always the "cool mom" We always got to do things even though she was and STILL is Extremely over-protective! She used to follow us whenever we rode our bikes anywhere and we rarely ever rode the bus! I find myself being a bit of a "freak" thinking of Xavy starting the big school and riding his bike to school even though we live right down the street from the school. Hee hee...
I used to make fun of my mom for getting so excited when all us kids were home at night so she could lock the doors and smile so big because we were all safe and home together. But I find myself doing the same thing at night ALREADY and my kids are still little! Oh geez! They better watch out!
Whenever my mom calls us girls even though we can see on our caller id that it is clearly her....whenever we answer she always says" Hi, bufficita....It's yous mama" In a baby voice too! She is so funny! oh and do you miss yous mama? Oh and how are the babies? They better be wearing coats! She is very loving and such a hard working person and I'm so proud of everything she has accomplished and continues to accomplish everyday!
Words can't express the LOVE I have for my mom and I hope she knows everyday that I love her and I try everyday to become a better person.
I know my mom misses her mom everyday and I want her to know that Grandma's memory lives strong within me! I think of her often and what she might say to me being a mom... She had the ability to make you feel like you were THE only person in the room...She gave you her full attention and you always knew without a doubt you were loved! She was such a sweet, and talented lady and she is missed so much! I think we all got our ability to love so much from her...My moms mom...I see so much of my grandma in my mom and I know she would be so proud of my mama and her accomplishments and I know she would LOVE seeing her be a grandma! :) Her memory lives within us all...There is pieces of her in all of us and it's comforting to see and know that....
My mom always used to say...your sisters will become your best friends and stick together and be good people and it has really stuck with me and I am trying to instill those things in my babies! I love you mom... Thanks for always being there...I know I can always count on you!

Happy Mother's Day!

Love always,
Stefanie
