Happy Mother’s Day to the Queen Bees in our lives who were right about…well, everything. Yup. You were right about ‘that boy’.
He was truly all the adjectives you used to describe him – but of course, I realized that a little too late.
Cheers to the women who gave up wine for nine months just to have us! Still in awe about that one! How did you do it with everything you were going through in life? I just stubbed my toe and now feel like drowning myself in a bottle of Muscat!
A bow to the superwomen who put up with all our BS and remained our number one fans; the wonder women who drove us around and listened to all our complaints for YEARS without getting any acknowledgment; and the Misty Knights who still thought we were beautiful even with uneven side bangs, unflattering braces, and skirt-over-jeans (what were we thinking??)!
We love you, adore you, and are grateful for everything you do for us – even though we will never accept your follow request!
And while we might never find the right words or that “best” gift to give you for all your unconditional care and love, we will never stop showing you how much you mean to us.
That’s why we rounded up some simple yet dreamy gems we thought you might want to add to your beauty arsenal.
Check them out, have the most sunshiney, heart-warming, and Happy Mother’s Day, Momma!
