and creative little girl,

who makes Mother’s Day something to look forward to celebrating every year.

This Hallmark holiday went from a day I dreaded every single year after my mom died…

to a day I cherish and spend loving on my sweet girl just like every other 364 days of the year.

I love you, Lily (more than you will ever possibly know)!
