To all Single Mothers who acted as both mother and father; we bless you and thank you.\n

I am a Strong Woman. Everything that\u2019s hit me in life, I\u2019ve dealt with on my own. I\u2019ve cried myself to sleep, picked myself back up and wiped my own tears. I have grown from things meant to break me. I get stronger by the day and I have God to thank for that.\n

Call your mom, call your dad. If you\u2019re lucky enough to have a parent or two alive on this planet, call them. Don\u2019t text. Don\u2019t email. Call them on the phone. Tell them you love them, and thank them, and listen to them for as long as they want to talk to you.~J.K. Simmons\n

Mom, I know that behind those soft and comforting hugs is a woman whose heart is strong, and whose soul is selfless\u2026 I love you.\n

Even a Strong Woman needs a shoulder to lean on, someone who\u2019ll just listen as tears roll down her face, and remind her that no matter how far she\u2019s fallen, she\u2019ll get back up again, stronger and wiser than before.\n

A Mother is your first friend, your best friend, your forever friend.\n

Children have this amazing way of becoming exactly who we tell them they are. If we tell them they are strong, they become strong. If we tell them they are kind, they become kind. If we tell them they are capable, they become capable. Speak life into your kids, so they will have what it takes to tackle their own life one day.~Amy Weatherly\n

Love You Mama\u2026 What I\u2019d give if I could say, Hello Mama in the same old way. To hear your voice and see you smile, to sit with you and chat for a while. So if your mother is still here, cherish her with care, for you never know the heartache until you see her empty chair. Miss you Mama.\n

My Children will never have to wonder where to go for a Hug, Love, or Support. Their mama will be there for them no matter how old they are.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
