💐 Honoring the Women Who Carried Us

In celebration of Hoodoo Heritage Month, today is Day of Our Mothers — a sacred day to honor the women who birthed generations, carried traditions, and held families together. 💛

I’m honoring my grandma (Mema), my mom, and my aunt Rhonda — three women whose love, strength, and faith continue to pour into every generation that follows. Their lessons, laughter, and prayers live on through us.

Today, I celebrate them by remembering their stories, feeling their presence, and giving thanks for the women who shaped our family’s heart. 💐
