Mother's Day Reflections
from Brave Care Mothers
Mother's Day is a day to celebrate and honor the women who have raised us, cared for us, and loved us unconditionally. We asked several of our Brave Care mothers to share some of their favorite things about being a mom. Here's what they said:
"I love being able to learn as much from my daughter, as I am able to teach her. I really love moments of silliness with just her and I, laughing at everything and nothing, it feeds my soul ❤️"
-Crystal, Medical Team
"I love seeing the world through my children's eyes. They're so full of creativity, playfulness, laughter and new ideas. It allows me the unique opportunity to slow down, be fully present, and connect through play...something all adults could benefit from!"
- Kendra, Medical Team
"So many things I love most about being a mom. The hugs, the giggles, the sparkle in their eye but also being their safety net as they grow and evolve. Being a mom just keeps getting better. When you think you couldn't be any prouder, or your heart couldn't possibly be fuller, they inspire you once more. I get to experience childhood all over again, but through their eyes. It's wonderful."
- Lee, Operations Team
“I have the privilege of loving and supporting my children as they grow into whatever and wherever their wildest dreams can take them. They will always look back and see me right behind them, smiling with so much love and pride (and snacks)."
- Niki, Medical Team
"Becoming a mother is one of the wildest experiences I have ever had. Most days seem difficult to manage but when my 2-year-old asks me for a hug randomly and gives me a kiss on the cheek it makes the days less difficult. Some highlights are singing along to the Disney channel soundtrack in the car, building tents in the lounge with all of the pillows and blankets we can find, and then cheering and high-fiving when she has done something new/scary or difficult because it means she is becoming a strong independent human."
- Jayde, Reception Team
"Exploring with Halle and getting to witness what makes her joyous."
- Amanda, Medical Team
"There are a few things I'm looking forward to about becoming a mom like hearing his coos and giggles and seeing those legs kicking on the outside. I’m excited to relive special moments through his eyes as he discovers the world. My ultimate goal is to guide him in life as best as I can and be someone he’s proud to call mom."
- Michelle (expectant mother), People Ops
The reflections from some of our Brave Care mothers show the different joys and challenges of motherhood. From watching their children grow and learn new things, to experiencing the unconditional love that comes with being a mother, these reflections remind us of the immeasurable value of a mother's role in a child's life.
It's heartwarming to see how much love and pride these mothers have for their children, and how they cherish every moment with them, no matter how small. As we celebrate Mother's Day, let's take a moment to honor and appreciate all the mothers in our lives for the sacrifices they make, the love they give, and the impact they have on their children's lives.
Thank you to all the mothers out there for everything you do. Happy Mother's Day!
