Thought-Full Thursday: Marks of a Mother

Sep 14, 2016 By Layla

“…our biological connection is hardly how I learned she was my mother as a child. It was, instead, the love she showed and the care she offered freely. It was time spent listening and sacrifices made on my behalf (especially the ones unseen). It was, and still is, the way she looks at me every time we meet. These are the true marks of a mother, and each and every child will be forever changed by any of you that choose to bestow these gifts.”
