I woke up this am and I just laid in bed for a moment before getting up. I knew it was Mother’s Day and a tear came to my eye as I thought about how very much I love and miss my mom. It honestly still feels like yesterday when I lost my mom to cancer but in fact it was back in 1994 when my younger brother Rich and I had to say good-bye to our incredible mom. Our mom Jane was nothing short of incredible. Mom raised us with so much love, happiness, support, discipline, good values & morals all with her beautiful and kind heart and spirit. Yes, mom was simply amazing. Today, Rich and I have so many beautiful memories of mom & dad and the time we shared with them both. Now, they watch us from above as our 2 angels.
As I sat down for breakfast, I opened up my email box for the day and this one email in particular really brightened up my morning. It was from this wonderful couple that I had the pleasure of meeting at the Emerald Cup-George & Terri. This was the email I received:
Good Morning Krissy
We just wanted to say that on this day as we all celebrate our mothers. You are a good woman because your mom is a good example, which makes you an extension of her for this generation. Terri and I love the fact that you have dedicated your life to health and fitness
Once again it was so awesome meeting you as you can tell from our excitement!! We were child like but what we take away from that experience is that you are the truth, a lady with a beautiful spirit and kind heart. The reason you being is that your mom raised you that way
God Bless You
George and Terri
This kind email from George & Terri just touched my heart and made me so happy inside. They are right. I am an extension of my mom and also a huge factor of who I am today and where I am today is because of my mom and the way she raised me. This email was soon to be followed by a text from a dear friend who I highly love and admire expressing how they felt my parents did a good job raising me and how I have evolved into a beautiful woman. Yes, tears filled my eyes and I can’t tell you how much I appreciated those kind words. I am truly #THANKFUL. For me, I live today and every day just striving to be a better person, to touch lives, to inspire others and to love~
I want to wish my Mom a Happy Mother’s Day. Mom-I love you with all my heart and I always will-THANK YOU <3
I also would like to wish all of the other wonderful mothers out there a Happy Mother’s Day. You are all loved so enjoy your day~
Love,
Krissyxo
