Happy National Kindness Day!🤍🤍🤍
My favorite day of the year. This one is for my Mom. Who managed a team of all men, in the 80s, worked 12 hour days, AND still came home with her bright red lipstick and heels and cooked a 3 course meal. I mean how???
Right now, in my life, I can’t do all this. I wish I could. And someday maybe I will. But for now, I will remain forever in awe of my own Mom, who made us say “women power!” At dinner even when we didn’t want to. I will be kind to myself when I simply can’t do it all, and celebrate the things I can do- for my family, my friendships, and for my myself. At this moment, I am doing the best I can.
…And I will still be the embarrassing Mom on rare school drop off days that screams “BE KIND!!!” out of the car window to my young kiddos even if they can’t hear me… because in my mind, “always be kind” is the foundation of all success and happiness.

“Happy ! Today is dedicated to my amazing mom, who in the 80s managed a team of men, worked 12-hour days, and still came home in heels and red lipstick to cook a 3-course meal. Total energy!
Right now, I may not do it all like she did, but I’m learning to be kind to myself and celebrate what I can do—for my family, my friends, and myself. And yes, I’m that mom yelling ‘BE KIND!’ at school drop-offs, because kindness is the foundation of all success and happiness.
Here’s to and doing our best! ❤️💪✨
