Wise. Funny. Loving. Courageous. These are just a few words that describe moms. We may be celebrating Mother’s Day a little differently this year, but we can still shower the mothers and mother figures in our lives with love and gratitude. What word best describes your mom? #AtriaTogether #HappyMothersDay

Good news! You still have until noon EDT tomorrow to make this Mother’s Day mom-umental by showering your Atria mom or mother figure with words of love and gratitude.
