Mom — Take a break — Day

Mom… Mother…Ma…Amy… Amy Shay!

Well now that I have your attention, I can start. For one, I want to apologize that I’m not there with you today. I’m sorry my finals schedule sucks. BUT I promise I will make it up to you next week when we’re at the Biltmore. We’re not going four or so months without seeing each other again. It has been too long and I don’t like it.

I don’t even know where to begin.

I could thank you.

I could say how much you inspire me to do better.

I could say how you’re able to pick me up from hundreds of miles away.

I could say how much I love that we can spend all day on the beach doing nothing.

I could say how grateful I am that we have such a good relationship because I know some of my friends don’t.

I could say how much I can’t wait to spend the better part of three weeks with you.

But even all that wouldn’t do you justice.

I hope you know all that you have done for me, which I wouldn’t have enough lifetimes to make up for. I can only hope I can be as good of a mom as you are to the kids I have one day. I hope you Alex, Dad, and Rosie have a lovely relaxing day because you deserve that and so much more. I love you mom and I can’t wait to see you.

Love,

Ashleigh
