I read a Mother’s Day post yesterday that could be the best post I have ever read and I would advise that it be sent to a publishing company and be published for the world to have access to it… obviously names removed but the intent and thought process be realized. Thank you for your perspective Mike Ciulla !
I try each year to make sure I let my wife and every woman and mom that sees my social media post know how much I value you, cherish you, and recognize ALL you do for you loved ones around you! Whether they are step kids, adopted kids, grand kids, foster kids, or biological kids… the way you mom is amazing!
It’s been an honor and a pleasure to have a job and career that has given me the opportunity to
Gain so much perspective of the woman’s thoughts and emotions. My client base has been 80% or more women for my 25 years in the personal training and fitness industry. And you all know how many times I have told you I would not make it as a woman (no man would), what you are capable of, responsible for, and accomplish puts you above all in the chain of command (lol). That along with losing my mom at the young age of 26, then having twins 16 months after our first baby is also a big reason why I was able to open my mind and absorb as much as possible to understand what it is to be a mom!
I am thankful for all the moms I met through Keeping Pace and Pam Pace for all the support and love which helped us through real life highs and lows what motherhood truly is!
Arielle … there are no words, or posts, or hallmark cards or even blank cards with my feeble attempt to write something creative that can express my love for you, my gratitude for what you do for this family and the kids, and my amazement of how you try to equally include and share your time and love with all of them. (Even me lol) … I know it’s exhausting!
But you do it anyway and you do it consistently!
This story rings true to every mom out there, switch out the names and put your own in bc it’s probably that story as well. Take this as your “thank you”, you are recognized, praised and loved!
Happy Mothers Day! 🩷💐🌸🌷
