Welcome to our Amazing Moms Monday series! Motherhood comes in all shapes and sizes.  Mothers come from varying different backgrounds, each with their own unique story.

Mom’s have one of the most fulfilling jobs in the world!  Too often, we lose sight of what is most important and focus on what we feel are failures.  So to change that narrative, we will be featuring an Amazing Mom every Monday to inspire us all to make a change!

The Mom Kind is proud to partner with the #WeLoveMoms movement to celebrate these amazing parent role models!  These moms are making a difference in their communities and offer some real world inspiration.

 “The Journey of a thousand miles, Begins with a single step.” – Lao Tzu

The #WeLoveMoms movement aims to provide inspiration to moms in need.  To find out more about this project and how you can help, please check us out here.

Through the inspiration of the Amazing Moms: Parents of the 21st century coffee table book (Mother’s Day 2018), we are so happy to feature these beautiful women who demonstrate motherhood in unique ways!

Without further ado, let’s check out this week’s featured Amazing Mom!
