Moms Love a Florista!

A mama I want to showcase for Mother’s Day is my cousin Erin, who owns Florista of West Olive, her successful and beautiful flower business! Not only is Erin an amazing wife and mom to her two children, she is amazing at her garden, growing many varieties of flora and creating beautiful bouquets. You could say her business is BLOOMING! For the first time, I ordered a Mother’s Day Vase for my mom and mother-in-law! I’m so excited to support my cousin with this meaningful gift for my loved ones. I know Erin’s artistry and personal touch will be in each beautiful bouquet!

A Local Mom-Business

Erin highlights The Florista Story on her website (button below), describing how her family “roots” have always been deep in horticulture! In April 2019, she started her business on a piece of land in West Olive and has continued to work hard since. Erin gives the glory to the Lord throughout the journey saying,

“I feel extremely blessed to be able to do what I do. God has truly provided in all aspects of this business and it is amazing to look back and see the Lord’s hand in my story. My husband I are so thankful for all of our customers that make this dream possible.”

Not only does Erin grow beautiful flowers, she shares her passion and knowledge with others! Erin loves to put on events for parties, wedding showers, and so much more. Women create memories and their own beautiful bouquets with Erin’s guidance and expertise. The perfect activity for any group! Here are the flowers she is growing this year and more details from Florista of West Olive!

Being an mom- entrepreneur is not always easy, but from what I’ve seen, always worth it! Erin is such an inspiration to anyone who has the opportunity to positively impact others with their gifts and passion!

Celebrating Joy & Carol

Joy Mama is my role model, caregiver and support for all my twenty-six years. My mom has been with me every step of the way in my own new journey of motherhood! Without her, I do not know what I’d do. I am so thankful for her loving guidance! I have a renewed appreciation for my mom’s excellence at working hard all day, every single day. I now realize how much work it is to have a well-maintained household in a growing family with growing ambitions! I aspire to be more like my mother every day, and she has certainly become my closest friend and ally.

Carol has been the greatest gift as a mother-in-law. It was an answer to prayer to marry into a supportive and loving family such as my husband’s. Carol is generous, welcoming and encouraging- and I really could not say enough about how well she loves others. I want to raise our sons how Mama Carol raised Sam- caring, strong, confident, humble, and truly loves the Lord.

Both Carol and my mom are the very best grandmas to Sammy and now baby Johnny!

Celebrating our mom’s, grandma’s, aunts, sisters, cousins- any woman who has endeavored on the journey of motherhood- is SO incredibly important! All are carried by their mother physically, emotionally and spiritually in some way. What an honor and rewarding privilege it is to be a mom! With motherhood there comes new purpose, new ambition, new identity, and new life! Mom’s hold such an important position unlike any other, not only in their families with husbands and children, but also in our communities. Mom’s give joy, grace, backbone, and consistency to our world with a unique love that comes with the sacrifice of giving birth and raising their children.

The biggest thank you to all of our mothers! Thanks for reading!
