"Be a mountain or lean on one."
- African proverb
There is no greater comfort than a mother’s arms. A steady heartbeat soothing your ears, a gentle voice speaking into your hopes, but most of all, a familiar scent enveloping you in comfort; the aroma of love surrounding you. The fragrance of a mother is the fragrance of safety, belonging and acceptance. It is a perfume that draws you in and calls you home…. and one that lingers long after the moment passes.
