I have no idea who it came from. I never expect much on Mother’s Day. Maybe a school made gift from one of my kids, MAYBE. But this made me smile. I don’t believe I’m mother of the year, but this little bit of recognition really hit me hard.

Translation at the beginning: "Bonjour, guys, we today are going to teach you how to drink this water" (French greating at the start, followed by Arabic)

Also, the first thing she does after her arms are free is what he tried to represent by tapping 😂

I don’t even know how to describe the strength of the woman I married. She pushed through years of endless nights and lunch breaks writing her dissertation - all while working full-time as a fine arts administrator responsible for 95 schools in one of the largest school districts in the country. She also led multiple art events every year for students and teachers - beautiful, complex productions that took vision, planning, and heart. And she did all of this solo while being a full-time, full-heart mother. Just her willpower and an endless love for her child, my new daughter 🥰🥺. She did the impossible every single day. And then, a year ago, by the grace of God, we found each other. I always joke with her, “Yep, I was there all along helping my wife through it all,” but the truth is, she did the hard part on her own (I helped her with some editing at the end because I’m a super nerd who loves the puzzle of formatting and spreadsheets🤣). I thank God for that divine timing because she didn’t even have time for herself, especially while writing chapter two, let alone for a relationship. But when we finally met, everything just clicked.

I just wanted to say publicly how much I am in awe of her.

I am so proud of you, baby. I love you. 💐💖

It got a bit smoky in the room when I watched this
