love letters to moms
As a special tribute to wonderful women in our lives we asked a few to convey their sentiments to their mothers. As we like to say, Happy Mother’s Month!
Dear Mom,
Liv Sain to her mom, Pamela Sain
Where do I even begin? How can I possibly capture how much you mean to me in this letter? Well, here I go… You are a mother like no other. Although I was fortunate enough to have a father until I was 23 years old, the person I become moving forward will be because of you. As Abraham Lincoln once said, “All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my mother.” I have been struggling since I was a child. Life hasn’t been easy. It seems every time I get back up, something else knocks me down. But I know for a fact I wouldn’t have been able to overcome any of it if it weren’t for you. You are the epitome of courage. You have shown me what it means to never give up. You have been my biggest cheerleader. When I’m pessimistic, you’re optimistic. When I’m down, you lift me up. When I’m in doubt, you show me conviction. When I lose the will to keep going, you remind me that I’m a fighter, and most importantly, when I think about the day I’ll lose you, I’ll know that I was loved, worthy and mattered. These are the lessons I will always carry with me. I will always remember when you’re gone; it’s only until we meet again. Liv
