Growing up, every time I’d come home from school with a story to share, my mother was there with a snack and a listening ear to hear about what was on my mind. When I came home with a tale about my disastrous second-grade classroom, she marched into the school to figure out what was going on. And as I grew older, including up through my years as First Lady, she was always there for me as a guiding light through whatever fog was clouding my path. She’s always listened more than she lectured; observed more than she demonstrated. In doing so, she allowed me to think for myself and develop my own voice. From an early age, she saw that I had a flame inside me, and she never tempered it. She made sure that I could keep it lit. Mom, thank you for kindling that fire within me, and for your example as a mother and a grandmother to our girls. We would never be who we are today without you. #HappyMothersDay, Mom. Love you. ❤️

To my mother on this Mother’s Day. You are the BEST Mom I could ever dream of. The most creative, curious, joyful person I know. I love the way you laugh and sing and find happiness in little things like squirrels on your porch and birds outside your window. I love the way you love dogwood blossoms and the first tulips in the spring.????You always laugh at my stupid jokes and tell me I’m doing a good job as a mother, as a working woman, as a citizen of the world trying to make meaningful change. You’re my biggest inspiration and my best friend. I love you, MOM. ????
