When I was growing up, my mom gave me “I believe in you/good luck” cards before every single basketball and softball game. Now, I’m 43 and she follows all my book awards/news and immediately sends me texts like this. I love you, Mom 💕

Happy World Ocean Day! "No water, no life. No blue, no green." Sylvia Earle.
