Thank You For Being My Mother Hen

Mom, Mommy, Mother Hen, or Queen B

To my Mom, Mommy, Mother Hen, or Queen B. (Whichever you decide to answer to)

Even though I tell you I love you all the time, I thought you should know just how much I appreciate you. I'm not sure it can even be put into words how much I really do love you and cherish you. You brought me into this world, and for that I am grateful. I've had an extraordinary life so far and all of it is thanks to you. You've always put Lane and I first. Even before yourself.

You're always making sure that I have everything I need and want, from letting me choose the music in the car, to traveling everywhere following my love for cheer, or just giving me a hug after I've had a bad day. Above anything else, you have always been there for me. From changing my diapers as a baby to cuddling me in bed when I was sick, and especially now with helping me choose what college to pursue my dreams in. We made it through most (and more to come) of my stubborn teen years and here you are today still loving me.

From day one you were always on my side... even if I was completely and utterly wrong. The amount of things that you have put up with, sometimes I wonder how you do it. I am forever grateful that you have put up with me for these 16 + years.You are my best friend, my mentor, and my role model. I couldn't have asked nor would have ever wanted anyone better to take your place. I am wonderstruck by you.

You've watched me succeed and fail. You've been there to wipe my tears after breakups, or to see that ear to ear grin on my face when I step off the competition mat. You've witnessed a lot of my terrible mistakes as well as my good decisions. You've watched and helped me grow and mature.

I just can't seem to understand when someone says they would never want to be anything like their mother, because I would do anything to be half the woman you are today. I know we've had our fights and problems. We've had our ups and downs. But at the end of the day please remember that I love you more than words describe.

You mean the world to me. There isn't anybody or anything that could take away the special bond we share. I love you to the moon and back.

XOXO,

Jude

Letter To My High School Friend Group

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo
