     Porsha Carr

Hi guys!

 We are only a few days away from Mothers Day and while flowers from the hubby and home made Pintrest mothers day cards from the little ones are nice, sometimes we often loose sight of why we actually celebrate. Today I have teamed up with 36 different mothers from all back grounds (37 including myself) of life with kids of all ages. I have challenged each of these mothers by asking them one question.
“what does it mean to be a mom to you?“. Oh yeah and did I mention they could only answer the question with one sentence. That’s right, one sentence to explain this amazing, crazy, wild, beautiful thing we call motherhood. Huge thank you!! to all these beautiful mamas who participated in this post. So without further a duo what does it mean to be a mom to us in one sentence.

Being a mom to Ivy & Aria is the biggest blessing ever, it’s like going shopping at Target and finding a million dollar winning lottery ticket.

Children are the greatest gift the universe can give you, they will remind you of all the possibilities and opportunities the world has to offer you, and will make you the most kindest version of yourself.

Being a Mom is just…. Love.
