“Honey don’t work so hard, God don’t want you to work so hard, he wants to enjoy recreation”. I just got off the phone with my Mom and these were her parting words. I will be fifty-six in a couple of days and each and every day I realize how much I appreciate my mom and her wisdom. I have tried to share this love and wisdom with my three adult daughters and grand daughter, I am sure that one day they will appreciate this love that I am passing on from my mom.
She was an entrepreneur and probably didn’t even realize it. She was just providing for her seven kids. She was “The Help”, she always came home tired but with a positive attitude. She was very proud of the fact that she worked for herself and could always stay home if we needed her. I will always appreciate her sacrifices and her strength. I guess that is why I decided to start my own business and be there for my girls as well. Taking on the task of launching a luxury line of Eco friendly candles, that is a mouth full, and believe me it is a lot of work. Laguna Candles, that’s our family business and I am so proud of it and my girls and husband who supports it, but this weekend I am going to listen to mom and have some recreation and go to the movies. When I get that daily phone call and we talk for a bit I typically hang up feeling so blessed to still have her here and thinking, There is no one like a Mother.
