The Sparkle In Her Eyes Makes You Smile
Are you lucky enough to still have your mother or a mother figure in your life? If so, when you visit her, does she have that special sparkle in her eye, filled with joy at seeing you?
My mom has been gone for nearly 12 years now, since the end of June. In her final months, she was in assisted living and then a nursing home. In May of that year, she suffered mini-strokes and often didn't recognize us. But one day, while I was helping her with lunch, she got that familiar sparkle in her eye, a fleeting moment when she knew who I was. That memory always makes me smile.
Mom's eyes would light up the most when all five of us girls and our families were coming home for the weekend. After my dad passed away in 1999, she cherished having company even more. She loved the commotion, and there was always room for one more at her table.
In honor of my mom, I created my Swarovski Crystal Collection, featuring necklaces and earrings. The sparkle of the Swarovski crystals reminds me of the twinkle in her eye whenever we visited. If your mother or a mother figure is no longer with you, consider giving yourself a piece from this collection to remember that sparkle in her eye whenever she saw you.
Three of my four sisters, along with their spouses, joined my husband and me to visit Mom on her last Mother's Day. We created a book filled with family memories and photos. Cherish the time you have with your mom now; we never know how long we have with our loved ones.
Explore my Swarovski Crystal Jewelry for your gifts. Celebrate yourself with a touch of sparkle. We all deserve to feel special from time to time.
