Since day one they’ve been the kisser of scrapes, the wiper of tears, the calmer of fears; the corrector of wrong turns, the forgiver of mistakes; the giver of direction, the healer of broken hearts, and the instillers of wisdom. Most of all they’re the never-stoppers.
In my short time of being mama, I can finally understand why they just wouldn’t stop going to the ends of the earth for me. And now, more than ever, I thank God and all my luckiest stars for my parents who just won’t quit.
To all the parents who just won’t quit, YOU are what makes the world go round, and YOU are what keeps our world from never completely falling apart.
Mom and dad, you are the spinner of my world no matter the state of my world.
Thank you for never quitting.
