I wanted to start cap­tur­ing moments of my life that I am thank­ful for. The pic­ture here is a noo­dle dish I ate tonight. The dish itself is not the object of my gra­tu­ity but the entire din­ner expe­ri­ence. Today was Mother’s Day and I had din­ner with the best mother in the world — mine! And not only was I able to have din­ner with my mom, but my sis­ter, my brother, and my boyfriend were there as well. I was sur­rounded by peo­ple I love cel­e­brat­ing the great woman that loved me and sup­ported me from minute one. I am a very lucky per­son and I must never for­get that. Happy Mother’s Day!
