Mother’s Day is two-fold because we are moms looking forward to a little extra attention, but we also have moms that deserve our attention. My own mom has made a huge impact on who I am today and she has been very gracious about the years that Mother’s Day came and went and I didn’t even remember to send a card. I never meant to gloss over her, I just happened to be stuck on the struggle bus raising toddlers. Her gift to me has been her being so understanding of that season of life.
Now that I’m a mom I know that the most precious gifts I get on Mother’s Day aren’t measured by monetary value. I love the sweet notes, the hand-painted mugs, and the jewelry the kids made that they can’t wait for me to wear. Actually, I don’t like the jewelry if I’m being honest, but I do like to make them happy and I wear it proudly for their sake. The mugs don’t really survive more then a few dishwasher cycles either, but a Sparrow Lettering Co. mug will!
Consider giving your own mom a hand lettered card with a heart-felt note for her to read on Mother’s Day. Jenna at Sparrow Lettering Co. is a very talented young friend of mine who makes thoughtful, inspirational, and gorgeous custom prints. Her Mother’s Day cards start at just $4 + shipping and they are precious in every way….painted and lettered by hand and can be customized. I already ordered one for my mom.
Let me pause real fast to brag on my cute little friend, Jenna. In my mind she’s still an adorable little Kindergarten student I taught, but she’s actually a junior in high school. She has an Instagram account that is inspiring in so many ways. #WALLPAPERWednesday is my favorite day of the week where she shares a new print to cheer up my phone’s wallpaper. She also shares insta-stories of her lettering, painting, good books, or what God is doing in her life. I just vicariously took a trip to India and Singapore with her. Follow @sparrowletteringco and you will be encouraged how God can use even the youngest to glorify Him.

My favorite quote is: If ever there is tomorrow when we’re not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we’re apart.. i’ll always be with you.”

“So it goes.”
Be still and know
Not all who wander are lost.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
There are so many that I love, but one of my favorites is:
At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate
I like “Reach for the stars, even if you miss, you will land among stars. Thanks for the giveaway.
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.

My favorite quote is “Let go and let God”.
I love the 23rd Psalm
If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.
“Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It’s not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; it’s a day you’ve had everything to do and you’ve done it.”
Love this! Beautiful writing, Miss Jenna!
A verse I’ve been trying to live lately is, Psalm 34:1 “I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.”
