My mom was one of New Jersey's first female cops. She taught me about hard work and determination and never giving up. Moms don't quit. They push us to be better. To all the moms out there, thank you for everything you do. Happy Mother's Day.
Please can you be our next President?
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful story about your mom. I’m born raised and still living inNew Jersey girl not far from West Orange. Wish I could’ve known her. Sounds like a fantastic woman.
I also love the fact that your father was so supportive of her goal. Not nearly enough men thought like that back in the day. I'm fortunate my father was the same way so my sister & I grew up believing we could do anything we wanted to do.
Thank you for sharing your story. The wall was the only thing I failed when I took the test years ago, unfortunately I didn’t even know about that part of the test.
Miss having you as my Senator when we lived in Tucson!
Wow. No surprise she raised a man like you. 💙.
You won't hear this from our fearful leader.
Moms are the unspoken heros of heros.

Happy Mother's Day specifically to my mother. She's my foundation. She's given me everything. She's demonstrated strength, grace, gentleness & vulnerability that goes well beyond anything I've witnessed firsthand from anyone. She's why I believe angels walk among us. She's why I believe in people.
I love when you see a picture of someone and it's just so obvious they are a kind person. Some people, like your mom in these photos, just exude it.
She looks STUNNING in that kimono! She raised a pretty cool kid too. 😎
happy mother’s day to your mom!
I love everything about this so much!!! You got yourself a special mom.
Stunning!!! How thoughtful of you to do this for her :)
She is a light. ♥️
She is *glowing* in these photos!
wow she looks amazing in these pics too
Happy Mother’s Day, friends. Take a moment to tell your mom how much you love her. I lost mine suddenly last year, without a chance to say goodbye. I’d give anything for just ten seconds with her. The photo below is her (left) with her friends in the ’70s. She was cool as hell.
When we are remembered we become eternal 🫂
She looks cool as hell. I remember when she was ill and you were trying to get back to see her. Thank you for posting this photo of her and sharing her with us.
I hope you had more happy memories of your mom today than you had tears. 🫂💙
