Happy Mothers Day! 💙

In the name of this happy day, here’s 20 things to love about Peeta aka Mama Bear aka Olga!!

Her sense of adventure of course!
How she loves unconditionally. Like, for real.
Her creativity! If she’s not making pottery, it’s probably because she’s in her collage course!
Her knack for finding friends wherever she goes…
Her love of the little moments.
Her badassery! Is there anything she can’t do??
She’s a “Vooman of the Voooods!” And knows how to bring silliness to the little moments
Her positivity! All the darkness in the world can’t dim her light
Confidence! In herself and others
Her love of whimsy! Every new flower, River or overlook deserves a “how pretty!” and of course a few photos
Her love of life. She makes every day a special one.
How grounded she is. She seeks to be fully present in every moment.
Her *sometimes* off key quirky songs that occur at all hours of the day haha!
Her search for understanding. Of different people, thoughts, cultures and beliefs.
She’s well rounded; Put her in the woods, an upscale restaurant, a podunk little town or an opera hall. It doesn’t matter, she thrives!
Her authenticity. She is uniquely herself every day!
Her style! It’s personal, it’s unique and it’s her. She rocks it! (And she’s come quite a long way) 😉
Her affinity for all things chocolate and sugary. She won’t finish her dinner but she always has room for dessert! 😂
The gal has mad sourdough and baking skills..mmm
Teamwork! I gotta say, 7 weeks in and we are crushing it! I couldn’t ask for a better hiking buddy
And a bonus: She’s entirely beautiful, inside and out!
💙 Happy Mothers Day!! 💙

    What a beautiful tribute to an amazing woman…glad to have crossed paths on the journey of life and be a Vooman of the Voods, however briefly. And the will add one to make it 21…bringing an equally free spirited, grounded and genuine Katniss child in to the world!!
