Mumsy: Cant go more than a couple days without talking to my mom. She taught me how to fish and ride a horse, she has tons of ribbons and trophy’s from countless competitions showing horses as a teen. She’ll kick your butt at pickleball, and she taught me how to play and love basketball. She’s absolutely the coolest. She is my biggest fan and has always believed in me and pushed me to go after my dreams. She is one of the toughest humans I know and has enough courage for the both of us. When I lose mine, I lean on hers, and that’s the most I could wish for in a mother. Love you mama🥲💛 ( the pic above is my adoptive parents, my two older brother and me sitting outside the horse barn in Wyoming, don’t know what I’m scowling at, but it better watch it’s back)
