She taught me to be myself and encouraged me to get dirty and have fun. 9:30 – Theresa wears a necklace with a picture of her and her mom in a locket.

The little necklace charm is for her son and shares what it’s like to be a mom. 10:45 - Ariella shares her story about becoming a mom, when her and her husband never thought about being parents. Then after having five children the gapping hole inside her got filled up. 11:50 – After Ariella’s mother died she went to therapy and her therapist said, “I don’t think you are depressed, I think you are bored.” This was before she was married and had five kids and five dogs as if they were waiting for her. She didn’t realize how much she needed to help keep her level. 12:55 – Theresa always knew she wanted to be mom, when she was in a major accident when she broke her pelvis bone the first thing her mom asked the doctors was, “Can she still have children.” Because her mom knew how important it was for her. 14:30 – When Theresa and her husband first met and got to know each other they found a lot of similarities, including having a family.

Because of medical reasons, Theresa and Chris considered adopting and asked their son if he would mind if they adopted vs having additional children of their own. He said, “I don’t care, I just want a brother or sister.” Then asked if he wanted a brother or sister. He said a sister because they are just so darn cute. 19:15 – Ariella lost her mom in her early 30’s before she got married and had children. When her and her now husband reconnected, her mom said she was looking forward to being a grandma and pushing the stroller down the beach. She never got to do that. Her parents were in the holocaust, she was born in a refugee camp in Germany. She had a really tough life but was filled with light, energy, and fun. Kinda like I am a little fun, and my kids got that too which is nice. 20:00 – Her mom didn’t get the same opportunities that Ariella gets. She didn’t get to pursue who she could have been. So many people are struggling to go after their dreams. 21:58 – Past generations didn’t have the same things or the same opportunities that we have now. From Ariella’s story, Theresa can hear and feel the talented magical mommies club coming out of her. Part of that is knowing that her mom didn’t get to experience the same things.
