What or Who Inspires You?

My mom as a little girl.

My mother has always been my hero.

I love hearing stories about her as a little girl and I love watching her play with my little girls. My mother is a brilliant, talented woman and I could go on for hours about how much she means to me.

She has accomplished so much in her life and has been the most amazing mother anyone could imagine.

And now at 68, she hasn’t slowed down at all. Instead of giving in to a life lived, she is constantly learning and runs our e-commerce stores. In fact, it was her idea for us to launch our toy stores and she is the reason Janice and I have our online business. Without her vision and inspiration, we would not have the lives we have today.

Thank you Mom for inspiring us!

There is currently a 24-Hour #inspire Tweet-a-Thon running right now on Twitter & Facebook. It’s been running all day today — Tuesday, April 7. Hop on over and tell the world who or what inspires you!

The goal is to raise awareness and money for women in Kenya in the fight against poverty.

    She sounds fabulous. I can only hope that one day my children will write such blog posts about me. Course, by then it’ll probably be the next cool thing, and not blogs. lol

    I love the photo of your Mother. I could get lost in older black and whites.

  2. Beautiful post. It’s wonderful for a mom to inspire a daughter. I am trying to do that for my two daughters everyday! Hopefully they will take away from me what you have from yours.

    What a wonderful tribute to your mom. She sounds like an incredible woman…which doesn’t surprise me a bit…because she has two exceptionally talented, hard-working, and inspiring daughters! 🙂
