This ‘foolproof guide’ is anything but gimmicky—it’s a masterclass in cutting through the noise of performative sentiment to what motherhood (and daughterhood) really demands: presence over platitudes. Your blend of practicality and tenderness is a gift. The kind of piece I’ll return to yearly, like a letter to my future self.

My mother in law said every day was Mothers Day. I do really love hearing from the boys, mostly with a hand written note that I always seem to save.

I also have a very dear close friend who also has 4 boys and our boys are similar in age and we both love being a mother and grandmother and mother in law We try to see who calls each other first on Mothers Day. Thank you for your weekly “Happy on Purpose” I love them.

Happy Mother’s Day Amelia ❤️❌⭕️
