Mothers

today is a hard day

i've known two exceptional mothers, and i have lost them both

boundless unwaivering love for their children

they have always put their children before themselves, anyone else, and everything. the kind of resolve you are inspired and terrified of at the same time. i am grateful that i was a part of both their lives.

if you have a mom, however you have one, please love them extra hard for me. i miss them and i am envious of all the time you get to have with yours.

to the mothers, you are so incredibly strong. your love nourishes your children through their entire lives. and your babies will always be yours. with the evolution of that bond, through time; your babies love you, like they will never love anyone else.
