Messages For Mom
During these trying times, it may be little harder to show mom just how special she is. So this Mother's Day, the team at Wigs.com reached out to our community and offered our amazing clients the chance to tell the world about their wonderful mama or mother-figure in their life!
A message to moms from our CEO
For all of you out there who are moms and most assuredly don’t get enough thanks for it… THANK YOU! It is not a job usually done to receive gratitude, which makes it all the more admirable! Hopefully, we can all stop for just a moment right now to take an account of what the word MOM means to each of us." - Carliz Sotelo Moore
"My mom had a hard childhood where she helped her mom that also had a mental condition. She was the third in a family of seven. She got married to my wonderful father who also came from a challenged background. He lost his mom at age eleven since she was carrying a child and refused to abort. She had brain cancer, so they married and had four children: Esther, Aaron, Hannah, and Feagy. I am the oldest of this wonderful family.
Afterwards, my mom developed schizophrenia, and she raised us with love and devotion. My mom is a living example of overcoming hardships no matter what. Her motto is 'labeling is disabling' - she is my living inspiration never to give up. The picture above is of me and my son. I want to share this message with the world that being disabled does not make you lesser in any way. There's nothing wrong with getting help because it shows strength." - Esther Schwartz (Instagram: @eys_baby_blu)

This is my aunt, who I call Amma, and she took care of me while my parents worked. Her own children were young teens then and they all babied me and made sure I always had a healthy supply of mangoes and sugar cane nearby" - Laya-Dorina Lata (Instagram: @browngirl_withflair)
My mother-in-law Toni (right) is fabulous! How many of us can actually say that they absolutely love their mother-in-law as much as their biological mother? I truly won the in-law lottery when I married my husband. From the moment I met her, I knew she was my kind of people. She’s funny, kind, loving, giving, caring and best of all...sassy! Like my mom, she’s an awesome grandma to all of her grandkids and loves my son as if he was her biological grandson. Toni also calls me on every birthday to sing happy birthday, like she does with all of her kids. I mean come on, she rode motorcycles up until recently when she retired. How cool is this lady? So this Mother’s Day, I would like to recognize the two women that I admire and love the most. Thank you Mom and Toni for all that you do and for being such strong and inspirational women. I love you both to the moon and back. Happy Mother’s Day!" - Kira WIlson (Instagram: @d8tnohiochick)

"From the butterfly kisses to hugs like a bear, my mom is amazing because she’s always there. She holds me when I’m down, she makes me feel strong, she’s a woman I truly admire, even though we don’t always get along. It breaks my heart that we can’t be together today, but my mom is so powerful that I can feel her love from miles away. I hope she knows my love for her stretches as far as the eye can see. Mommy, I’m everything I am because you loved me." - Chaitlin Bell, Media & Vendor Relations at Beauty & Hair
