Happy Mother’s Day

12 May 2019

Happy Mother’s Day if you are celebrating it in your corner of the world.

My kids celebrate me on the Swedish date, May 26th;  but, I’m thinking of you — and my family abroad.

To Moms, daughters, sisters and friends, “you’ve got this.”

I’ve been thinking a lot about the everyday beauty of parenting — fundamental and foundational small, passing moments —  as I’ve used sprigs of heather from my front lawn to make this mother moment. The process behind choosing one sprig or another flower; carefully looking for just the right tones —-  shaking, scattering flowers and moving them around, petal by petal — to find “just the right piece. ”  This made me think of parenting and of being a Mother. I’m thinking of you: doing your best with what you have in your own hands to raise kids creatively every day in you own unique and beautiful ways. You’ve got this, Moms.
.
If there’s one thing I know about parenting, it’s that there are no instructions; just raw ingredients for each of us to combine these “petals + stems” creatively.

Wishing you the best today.
