I spend a whole lot of time talking about fitness/nutrition, my kids and about my own struggles/wins… but today I want to honour Gab… my mommy 🥰 she deserves her own post!
Meet Gabriella.
Oh you know her?
Then you know how selfless she is.
Oh you’ve never had the pleasure of meeting her?
Well, I’ll let you know she does everything with a smile…even if she doesn’t feel like it…even behind closed doors. A smile, a “yes”, and a “sorry” if delivered 2 min later than promised.
My mom is the most generous, kind, giving and creative woman I know.
She not only gives of her resources, but her time.
Need a babysitter? Gab will actually cancel her plans so she can be available.
In the mood for pasta? Nonna will have freshly made homemade fettuccini al’uovo next time you show up.
Need a shopping partner? Gab will drop it all and drive you to Toronto, “ohh and ahh” and everything you try on, walk around for hours, and not even enter a store of her own.
Need a school project for your kid? My mom will have made the trip to Michael’s and the dollar store with all the supplies ready to go and the patience to see it through.
Every occasion has their own cookie decorating schedule. Every Sunday an invite for a full family dinner. Every milestone marked with a heartfelt card. Every win, loss, struggle… met with the biggest hug and empathetic words to make you feel that much better.
My mom does everything with her heart and soul, and nothing expected in return.
They just don’t make them like my mom anymore. You may be lucky enough to have one of your own, so I hope you celebrate them today and let them know how much you love and appreciate them…and know you too are one of the lucky ones 🫶💕❤️
