They say there is nothing more powerful than a mother’s love, and having witnessed the enormity of this power in any number of circumstances, I carry a very special place in my heart for mothers. This admiration began, of course, with my own mother, Helena Crawford Kelly, who played a vital role in my upbringing and who I loved tremendously. Although she has been gone for 13 years, her memory remains alive in me, and I still miss her each and every day.
My Mother, Helena Crawford Kelly
Currently, I am surrounded by outstanding mothers at both at home and at work. Witnessing my wife, Beverly, in her role as a mother to her daughter, Sydney, and her son, Lucas, is beautiful and endearing. She is an amazing woman in many respects, and that extends to motherhood. And within my “work family” at Mike Kelly Law Group, there are mothers to children of all ages. I could share story after story of the sacrifices these women have made and the lengths they would go to for their kids, all the while never missing a beat at work. They are modern superheroes, and one day, if they have not already, the kids of MKLG will grow to see just how incredibly cherished they are.
So here’s to all of the mothers in my life—may your Mother’s Day weekend be as wonderful as you are!
