Mother's Day

Tonight I am grateful for so much. Ray took me to the I AM documentary at The Flicks that I've been dying to see. I cried through the whole thing. Although the movie depicted everything I know at my core, it felt so good to have it being confirmed by science and brought into the world on a bigger level. The world is shifting and I know my daughters will grow up in a better world than I once thought. That feeling and inner knowing is the best Mother's Day gift of all.

The movie was also a gentle reminder that the most important things in life are not things at all. I had it wrong for so long. Ray not working for my dad and losing his job is perhaps the best event that could have happened to us. I would have laughed in your face had you told me that a year ago. I know now that life is not defined by the things we accumulate. It's defined by the little moments. It's defined by LOVE.

So today, on Mother's day, I am feeling so lucky to be called "Mommy" every single day. These are the two reasons I get to celebrate Mother's Day. They are the reasons I am alive today.

This is what I woke up to this morning. Although Presley has never called me "Mother" in her entire life, does this not just melt your heart?
