Lessons My Mother Taught Me

My Beautiful Mother

My Beautiful Mother

Naturally, I thought about my mom and how much I miss her on Mother’s Day. I had a lovely dream about her the night before. She was happy, showing me around her new home. She always did have a flair for decorating, our home while I was growing up was beautiful. I view that dream as her way of communicating to me that she’s happy and peaceful among the angels ♥ having fun with my dad.

I wrote this article a few years after she passed. I learned a lot from her, these are a few of the gems…

After we become moms, we can’t help but see our own mothers in a slightly different light. We have a deeper understanding of the love they feel for us and we appreciate the sacrifices they made. Unfortunately my mother is no longer with us. I miss her and often wish I could talk with her and seek her advice on life, parenting, and how she kept her skin so smooth. There are moments when I think to myself how grateful I am for both the big and small lessons I learned from her while I was growing up.

She taught me proper etiquette and the importance of being polite. Because of my mom, I know which one is the salad fork, and that a simple thank you note is a lovely expression of gratitude. When we receive a gift or when someone goes out of their way to do something special for us, a handwritten thank you note is a show of gratitude that never goes out of style. My mom impressed upon me how important a thank you note is and I have done the same with my kids. It’s a simple gesture that shows a great deal of appreciation.

My mother was nurturing and taught me the important things in life, but she also modeled healthy living that certainly shaped how I live today… Read entire article at Parent Society.
