Mother’s Day Tribute: Shelly Kirsch
Several AJT readers express their gratitude and love for the most important women in their lives.
Everyone often says, “I have the best mom” but there really only is one, Shelly Kirsch. For as long as I can remember my mom has been my first phone call every morning and my last phone call goodnight. Growing up, you couldn’t have asked for a better role model or mom. I was one of those children who always knew how lucky I was in the moment and never forgot to tell her how much I appreciate her. My twin sister, Meredith and I relocated to Atlanta 13 and 10 years ago. It only took a matter of years until my parents moved down to Atlanta from NY as well.
We like to say Grandma Shelly’s home is really a Bed and Breakfast because at least twice a week or so, one of the grandchildren are sleeping over. Our kids tell us each Sunday night its time to make “reservations” for the week. In all honestly, my mom would have all 6 of her grandchildren sleepover each night if she could. It’s just who she is. Mom, I know I tell you everyday how much I love and appreciate you, but I want the entire world to know how incredible you truly are.
