HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

"First my mother, forever my friend"

While we can't celebrate Mother's Day how we normally would, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it's important to show love to some of the strongest women we know.

Mother's Day is the special time of year when you get to celebrate your first best friend and the person you always turn to when you need advice. It is the perfect opportunity to stop and reflect on all of mom's hard work and dedication. Mother's Day is also a great time to show your love and honor for all the other wonderful women in your life like your sisters, your aunts, your grandmothers, your in-laws, and your friends.

Mothers are so important to our development, as they've taught us to be strong, independent, and persevering as we chase our dreams. They've taught us the importance of family and giving back to our community; continually guiding us with limitless knowledge and unwavering dedication.

Mothers make sacrifices for their family without expecting anything in return. They're just happy to see you happy!

Show love and appreciation to your mothers today.

Happy Mother's Day from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office! Stay safe.

Sincerely,

Lafayette Woods, Jr.

Sheriff
