There is always pride in a mother’s heart when she is thinking about her children. She thinks about how far they have come, how much they have grown, and how hard she has worked to get them there. While this is always true for every mother and child, there are certain moments that always stand out.
There are moments when mom takes a step back, looks at her child, and is astounded by something they did. While this is the same for sons and daughters, there is something about the relationship between mother and daughter that is special.
